The people at work notice because you've known them longer and you are worried they smell you. When you are at work, there is no escape. You are trapped there all day and you can't run home like you can when you are attending a 2 hour class. People at college aren't in cliches like work. In college, everyone goes into class, takes notes and leaves--at work, people make friends and form groups and love to gossip. They know each other better, they all know you and it's a perfect breeding ground for gossip. Plus this isn't the first time the people at work have been around you. They smell a foul odor coming from you once and disregard it. Then on another day, they smell your foul odor again and notice a pattern forming. From that day on they expect you to smell. They start to associate you with an unpleasant scent and sniff on purpose when they get near you to see if you smell. It's almost as if they hope you smell so they can get some sort of perverse pleasure out of knowing that you do...maybe a superior feeling. That situation only makes you self-concious, nervous, and you start to sweat, which of course causes you to smell bad. It snowballs from there.
The people in the store don't expect you to smell and if you do, they think maybe it is a one time thing. They don't know you and are not saying anything because they don't want to be rude or hurtful to a stranger. The ones who say something are being immature, but you probably do smell, even to the people who act like they don't notice it. If I ran into someone in the store and they smelled foul to me, I would act like I didn't notice it too.
When you eat foods your body can process with less effort, you smell less. When anything stresses your body, like emotions, menstrual cycle, bad food, illness(cold or flu), you will smell worse. That is why on some days, nobody notices it and on others, POW! You might say, "I've been sticking to my diet carefully and I didn't smell last week, but this week I smell really bad!" Well, did you get your period? Did you get really upset about something? Have you been sticking to the same diet too long without rotating it?
A simplified explanation would be to say that the problem usually starts with an over-taxed liver. It is the liver's job to remove toxins or things that are unfavorable to the body and a big part of that is the food you eat. So when your liver is weakened, the digestive system accumulates toxins and gets worse. Your immune system, blood and all your organs are overloaded with toxins, which run rampid, food goes bad inside your stomach and food allergies develop. Your weakened body is in a constant struggle to expel the problem in every way possible, including through your skin. That is your stink--that is your problem.
I had the problem for years and one thing I can say is that, even though I loved life, I did not want to live as a permanent stinker. I had foul dead rat breath, garbage smelling skin, and poop smelling butt because even though I was constipated, I had a leaky waste leaking from my rear. *I STUNK!* I faced so much humiliation that nobody would believe unless they've been through it like you have and so many other people here have.
Now I must say, I would have done anything to get better. I spent thousands of dollars on things that seemed to cure me for like 7-30 days and then, POOF, I'm getting worse again. I did over 2 dozen liver flushes and just as many home colonics, which were both incredibly healing! In the midst of my desperation, I did a 33 day master cleanse. By the last week, I stunk just as bad, or worse than I did when I was eating regular food! Plus I was malnourished to an extreme and my hair started to turn clear(gray)! I bought a colloidal silver machine and drank colloidal water every day in hopes that would work. I bought a ZZzZZZapper, which I put on my leg in my sock. I remember on one day, I was taking my child to school and as I driving, I thought a wasp stung me! It was just my zapper that electrocuted me. My head would have hit the roof of the car if I wasn't buckled in and almost got into a car accident with my child. I still used the zapper in desperation for about a month, hoping it would work, unless I was driving.lol. However, the zapper never did zap any illnesses, only my sore leg. I diligently tailored my diet to my ever developing allergies. I would eat whatever my body wanted in order to get better, but I was only getting worse. Then I took 3lac and my hair started falling out in gobs. Then my skin lost so much elasticity in 3 months that when I would smile, my cheeks wouldn't go up. My skin was sore, as if I had a first degree burn, or like I had been doing serious drugs for decades. I hadn't. What caused it all was one Depo-provera shot coupled with the fact that I was a smoker for 10 years before I took the shot. So my desperate search continued and I tried EVERYTHING! Everything except urine therapy(UT).
I thought UT was never going to work, just like the zapper and colloidal silver machine. I thought with my luck, I would drink my own piss and probably win a Darwin award by killing myself in the most disgusting way possible. I debated over it a while and then figured I had nothing to lose. I had been so humiliated that there wasn't anything more that could break my heart, break my spirits, or kill me. So I got up in the morning and did it. I already slept 8 hours before I drank, so I wasn't tired. I took one sip of this rancid yellow kidney infected urine that made me heave. I did get a couple sips worth down my throat. I groaned and went back to my bed feeling naucious at what I'd done. Then as soon as I layed down I noticed my stomach started making loud noises. My stomach had a symphony going in there that sounded like the worst case of gas I'd ever had, but I wasn't passing any gas! It wasn't at all painful, just a strange feeling, like a child kicking like crazy when pregnant. Then I was suddenly very exhausted, probably because my body was going through a lot at the time. I layed there for about an hour, I think, and then finally when I figured out I was probably going to be safe after what I'd done, I fell asleep with my stomach and intestines still dancing around inside my body. Four hours later I woke up again. There is a mirror right next to my bed and I happened to look over at it and OH MY GOD, MY EYES WERE BRIGHT AND STARRY! I felt alert and energetic and didn't look nearly as sickly as I did a few hours before. I couldn't believe how much it had done.
Within about a month I noticed I could eat more foods. Every day the urine tasted a little less rancid until about the 4th month, where it started to taste rather bland. At first I did not do it ever day, but eventually decided that with a remedy for healing this good, I really might want to consider taking it every day, so I did. It has been almost 6 months now and my breath is good and I don't stink like I used to. Every once in a while I will get a bad odor in my armpits when I eat something that my body cannot handle yet. However, it is not that intolerable aura of odor that used to encompass whatever vicinity I was in at the time. I can think of almost 60 symptoms and/or diseases I've acquired over the past 12 years and 50 of them are gone. All that time; all that searching; all that money I spent and I got almost nowhere. It's incredible how close the cure was and how inexpensive it was. You may smell like you have wee breath for the first hour after you drink, but it isn't any more embarrasing than the alternative. Plus after that 1 hour, you can eat and drink. Eating will wash away any foul smell...Sometimes just drinking water will not be enough, so you'll have to eat before you get near people. As your body heals and your urine becomes more clean(bland), nobody will smell it, even right after you've done it. It's up to you, I'm just putting the information out there.
