I used to know a woman with such a horrible body odor. I davened in a small shul and as soon as this woman walked in the odor was so strong, unbearable...
She was overweight so I believe that she probably couldn’t keep herself clean... reach hard to reach places properly.....

I wonder if taking baths, soaking in with strong soap would help eliminate the bad smell? Unless it’s coming from the mouth...
I can’t believe that working on being super clean you would still have a bad odor. That includes:
-Only wearing freshly laundered clothing (every single garment every single day)
- bathing in a strong bubble bath every single day and wash every possible place with soap too
- getting dental work done and brushing your teeth twice a day
- Washing your linen and blanket on a weekly basis
- throw out old pillows and buy new ones
- throw out old shoes and buy a few new pairs
If after doing this for a month you still have a bad body odor, find a good doctor who is good at diagnosing...

Good luck

I know you mean well, but this post came across as condescending and judgmental.

I’m not overweight at all, and have very good hygiene.
Like I said I believe it’s something internal.
Do a google search if you want, there are many people in the world who suffer from unexplained body odor.

It can also be yeast overgrowth inside the body, or basic constipation or a hundred other medical issues. Is there no way you can dig some more with doctors outside of the box? Thats terrible that you have to live that way!

There's something there, you just need a really good detective doctor to dig deep enough and long enough to find it. Functional MD's are good at this. I've read it can be related to liver or kidney toxicity. This would not show up on regular bloodwork.

The GI I went to claims it would.
I wish I could afford a functional MD.
I’m guessing they don’t accept insurance.

I was desperate enough to call Refuah helpline for a referral.
The GI they sent me to said I came to the wrong place and did not even examine me or order bloodwork.

This post comes across as rude and offensive. OP mentioned that it's INternal, not external. This has zero to do with hygiene. I've heard about this issue before.

I am suicidal. Due to financial stress and PPD.
I am only pushing on because I have kids that need me, although I don't know for how much longer.
I don't have the strength anymore to push through this financial stress daily.

I feel like Gd is testing me with PPD, crazy financial stress, and a health issue (on top of other hell I've been through) and I'm not sure I can handle it any more.
I'm young yet feel very old, battered, defeated and hopeless.
I've tried it all, Garden of emuna, therapy, meds, but the threat of homelessness and my kids being thrown out of school all due to non payment and huge bills, weigh bigger than all the help out there.
Tonight I give up.

I cried reading other posters stories, and lost it reading the one that fostered kids that were taken away and the one that her 2 day old baby passed away. Dear Gd, how can you bear all this suffering and how do you expect us to bear it.

I'm so done.

I know that feeling. We too are struggling financially I n a very strong way. Though I take vitamins and medications to keep me going. I know that better times will come. I'm holding on to the hope of Yeshuas Hashem Kheref ayin. Keep trying, Hashem has the ability to make our situation better. Hopefully very soon. Take it minute by minute.

Get yourself chlorophyll drops from chloroxygen company. Start with one to three drops a day in water. It will neutralize any odor. It touches every part of your body. Please if you do it come back and let us know if it helps. I used it for years.
