Hey there!So I saw something on Dr. Oz that sparked my interest. There was a lady featured in the audience that said her mother never, ever, ever used deodorant and instead would use lemon under her pits. I did a bit more research and found that apparently it's quite popular.
If you have a sweating issue, foul underarm odor, or dark armpits, then take a lemon or lime, cut it in half, and rub it under the area after showering. The acid in the lemon/lime will react with your own body's chemistry and 'train' your body to not release the chemicals that cause odor. The acid also will lighten your armpits. I also use lemon juice to lighten acne spots, and other areas like elbows or knees! You want to make sure the area is is dry before you put on clothing because the acid can stain your clothing. Feel free to save the wedges in a cylinder and re-use as long as it doesn't dry out. When you first start using it, you want to do it daily but after a few weeks you can go to using the lemon/lime a few times a week and be odor free!
Good luck!
