Remedies for Underarm Odor

Body odor is often caused by the bacteria that live in the alkaline (salty) matrix that sweat provides. If you want to neutralize an alkaline solution, you need acid. This simple fact leads to an equally simple way to treat body odor. Instead of spraying on the aluminum compounds contained in commercial deodorants, you can use baking soda..

Baking soda and cornstarch can be used individually or together to help eliminate underarm odor. Baking soda, when applied to the underarms, will help absorb sweat, kill bacteria, and act as a deodorant. Apply the powder directly to dry underarms.

Cornstarch is extremely absorbent and may be more useful than baking soda in cases of excessive perspiration. The two can also be mixed together for a combination application.

How to Whiten Teeth With Baking Soda and Lemon Paste

If you wish to get rid of yellow teeth, you can try some natural remedies. There are many kitchen ingredients that you can use to restore your pearly white smile.

Baking Soda and Lemon Juice Paste

Baking Soda isn’t a shocker here. Sodium bicarbonate (its official name) is mildly abrasive; gently scrubbing away surface stains to return teeth to a whiter shade. It’s also very alkaline (the opposite of acidic) so I would think if you have a very acidic mouth or eat a lot of acidic food, it could help balance out the Ph, which would be useful as acid breaks down enamel-this is strictly speculation on my part. It will also reduce the acidity of the lemon juice, which acts as a natural bleach of sorts. I use a mixture of baking soda and water on some days, and use the lemon juice on others, as I don’t want to overdo it.

-Several teaspoons of baking soda

-Enough lemon juice or water to form a paste

-A toothbrush

Directions

Mix several teaspoons of baking soda with enough fresh lemon juice (or water) to make a paste. Wipe your teeth and any extra saliva off of them with a paper towel. Put a good amount of paste onto your toothbrush and apply. Leave the paste on for 1 minute, then rinse, so as to avoid the acid effecting enamel. If you are using just water you can leave it on for up to 3 minutes.

Many conventional teeth whitening methods contain harsh chemicals. Natural methods, however, whiten just as effectively without the harshness. Hydrogen peroxide, baking soda and lemon juice are among the most common home remedies for whitening teeth.
