Summary
Crocus 95178 developed long COVID and afterwards sweated heavily and smelled strongly (BO) even within hours of showering, never a problem before. They credited weekly grooming plus the Kaia Naturals underarm bar in every shower and an aluminium-based deodorant, saying the bar reduced the smell and the deodorant the sweating by 80%. They also took prescribed magnesium nightly but had not noticed whether it affected it.

Using an aluminum based deodorant while using the underarm bar is the bread and butter for solving this BO/sweat problem for myself.

I am prescribed magnesium every night, but I haven't noticed if it has affected this issue or not.
