How to help you know right away whether you are susceptible to armpit odor

Scientists' research has shown an unexpected connection between the earwax and the body's sweat-armpit glands.

Earwax is thought to be a "useless" body secretion and needs to be carefully removed to prevent them from clogging the ear canal.

However, do you believe that this fluid can reveal to you whether you are a "smelly" person ?

Specifically, if your earwax is wet, then you have a bad smell, and if it is dry or an array, the less odory gene. That means, if your earwax is dry, you won't need to worry about your body odor, especially "armpit".

Earwax can tell you if you are an "overbearing" person.

Research on this issue has been published in the American scientific journal - FASEB Journal. Specifically, the study has shown that a variant of the ABCC11 gene - often found in East Asians with sweaty smell in the armpits and wet earwax is related.

It should be clearly stated that the gene ABCC11 is a variant of gene GBCC11 . Those who own the gene corresponding to the letter G have many apocrine glands - the first sweat gland is destroyed.

Because of the same control of the gene that makes the smell, they will make the owner more susceptible to armpit odor.

This gland appears only in certain areas such as armpits, navel, genital organs . The mechanism of apocrine action is to bring sweat into the hair follicle, from which new perspiration is pushed indirectly onto the skin.

Because of the same control of the gene that makes the smell, they will make the owner more susceptible to armpit odor. In contrast, letter A has fewer routes, so there is almost no body odor.

An interesting piece of information for you is that based on statistics, smelly gels are almost absolute in Africans and Latin Americans . In Europeans this number is up to 80%; Japanese people only have 25% of the armpit gene. But even lower than that is the Korean, this gene seems to be only 0%.

Smelly genes account for almost absolute in Africans and Latin Americans.

In addition, the study also showed that wet earwax is also a factor that increases the risk of breast cancer.

Dr. Gerald Weissmann, who participated in the study, said: "Wet earwax is linked to the gene that causes armpit odor and is also a" clue "that helps detect breast cancer."

However, wet earwax does not mean that the person will have breast cancer, the study suggests only one of the factors that increases the risk of breast cancer. So, always pay attention to your health, and see a doctor for regular checkups!
