Nothing terrible with armpit odor. But it turns out, girls may like that scent, if you eat something.

We still know that one of the factors that helps two sexes attract each other is the body scent. However, not all smells are considered attractive. There are aromas with this person, but it makes others nauseous and vice versa.

So what determines a person's scent? According to a recent study from Macquarie University (Australia), your diet has a huge impact.

Specifically, research shows that women like the body odor of men who eat a lot of fruits and vegetables, instead of carbohydrates (found in starch, sugar).

Diet has a great effect on body odor.

Basically, previous studies have suggested that smell and seduction between the sexes are part of the evolutionary process. The more pleasant people smell, the more it proves to be a healthy "partner" for the next generation.

" Body odor is an important factor to attract the opposite sex, especially for women, " said research director Dr. Ian Stephen.

And to assess the relationship between smell and diet, Stephen used the method of color observation on the skin. Accordingly, he uses a spectrometer to measure the density of light reflected from the skin, thereby knowing what color on the skin is.

For people who eat vegetables with brightly colored fruits (carrots, tomatoes, etc.), large amounts of carotenoids (red, yellow and orange pigments) will be present on the skin. Then the spectrometer can evaluate the amount of vegetables a person has absorbed.

Will this scene end?

The study was conducted on both male and female volunteers. After taking the spectrophotometer results, a group of men will change into a clean shirt, then be asked to do some exercise. These shirts will be distributed to the female group, so that they can evaluate the attractiveness of the scent on a 21-point scale.

As a result, people who eat a lot of vegetables are judged to have a more pleasant and attractive smell. Eaters with a high-meat diet smell quite strong, but not too bad, while the group that primarily eats carbohydrates (starch, sugar) smells the most difficult to smell.

In addition, people with skin that contains "red-orange" pigments from carotenoids are also the most attractive group.

Since then experts concluded, colorful foods are the secret to help you attract others most naturally.

The group mainly eats carbohydrates with the most smelling smell.

However, body odor is also influenced by many other factors, not just diet.

According to the team, the diet only affects 30% of the difference in odor. Moreover, the research is only done on a small group, so further research will be needed in the future to draw accurate conclusions.
