 My chinese herbalist also says that one of the reasons that people get fungal infections in areas of the body that are prone to sweating, is because the sweat carries with it salts that cause the area to become slightly alkaline, rather than slightly acidic, leaving the areas vunerable to fungal growth. Lack of air circulation and sunlight contribute to the fungal growth as well. He also suggests spritzing these areas, such as feet, arm pits and butt cracks, with lemon juice in water, to help keep these areas more acidic.

It is not just the salts. A lot of body odor is from bacteria reacting with the sweat releasing highly alkaline ammonia.
