100 Day Raw Food Challenge
Stinky armpits=detox?
OK this is weird. I switched to Tom's natural deodorant a while back and never had any problems with it 'giving out'.
Sunday I ate mega junkola--including a hot dog--at a church buffet.
Next evening, I am listening to Matt & Angela Monarch speak (yippee) all the sudden my underarms start to stink! I mean really bad like a skunk. So embarrasing!
Today, it's midday and they are stinking again.
So I am wondering if it is detox from all the yuk food I ate 2 days ago. Has anyone had this happen?
During his talk, Matt emphasized the importance of adopting an eating plan you could stick with instead of yo-yoing back and forth. The reason for this is that once the body becomes cleaner, the impact of eating toxic food is much worse. So I'm wondering if this is some sort of wake up call?

Afraid so....as what you eat will be sweated out as its easier to de toxic and expel it it isnt hanging about for a long time..so ....thats life !...OK this maybe gross but I think you will also find your pe will smell of whater your ate the day before also...its normal.
But on the plus side you can now relax and be happy that your system is working in tip top shape !!..remember medical diagnosis used to rely on observations of body odour, sweat, urine smell and colour and stools in the old days, its all blood tests now !! and we have become dettached from what our body is telling us via its excretions...we are what we eat in smell too !! LOL
REJOICE IN YOUR SMELLY PITS !! THE DEIT WORKED LOL

Aahh...very interesting. Matt Monarch also said in the olden days colonics and enemas were de rigeur.
LOLOL...I also had the thought that Matt and Angela's presence that caused me to detox on the spot!
She mentioned that when she did her 92 day Juice Feast her system became so charged that she would set off car alarms when she walked through a parking lot!

Yeah she said a friend was doing it and caused street lamps to go on so when they took a walk it was quite a show.
Bunny - that's weird. Wonder what's in there trying to come out?

Hormones have a place in this too...so..wonky hormones can mess up your sweat and be dumping things out of your system, i.e diabetics smell strange etc due to hormone disturbances, also teenagers have problems ....its complicated.

Hey are people in the UK as obsessed about body odor as they are in the states? I remember being in France years ago and it didn't seem like people cared about shaving their pits, wearing the same outfit for more than a day or generalized armpit odor. So different here where we have an armada of products to keep us odorless, hairless and disinfected.

well, the stink isn't directly excreted by your armpits ... the stink is actually the waste products of the bacteria that feed on the toxins that are excreted ... that's the job of bacteria, to eat toxins (and that's why things that are rotting smell bad)
it's NOT because you had a "clean" diet that the bacteria in your pits are stinking ... it's because you had a bad diet there for a few days and the skin is an excretory organ ... that's why we have so many deodorant products out there ... the body gets rid of toxins no matter what and bacteria will eat them
my right arm pit (not the left for some reason!) stinks every time i eat garlic (raw) ... so, my body is getting rid of some kind of toxin that's in garlic ...

So antiperspirant may be just as bad an idea as some antibiotics - because they are preventing the body from doing it's job? At least it sounds like it.
I guess if we all ate clean we wouldn't need aluminum based antiperspirants that give us Alzheimers. One more reason to ditch the junk food (ugh,,,just ate a tootsie roll there..oops).

Yep we caught the US disease of washing too much and spraying ourselves in huge amounts of fake smells..and anti perserants are always being marketed on the TV..and they are SO BAD the aluminium in them is poisonous to the body, the chemicals and scents are allergens, and it blocks the pores so that theres a back log of sweat and the lymphatic system cant work properly etc..HORRIBLE stuff...best just to wash and have purfume or rose or sandlewood water like in the middle east...much healthier...
