Male Organ Odor: Does Diet Affect It?

An unpleasant and persistent male organ odor is a major issue for many men, and one that can be off-putting to potential partners. A man may have scored big points for his charm, looks, wit and other factors, yet lose them all when he drops his trousers and a strong stench emanates forth. Proper male organ care is definitely needed to address this problem, and that may include making a change in one’s diet.

Causes

Male organ odor of varying degrees is common among men, and for several reasons. The hair surrounding the member creates an “insulating” factor which increases the likelihood of sweat. The fact that blood rushing to the member during states of tumescence increases the heat quotient also contributes, as does the common practice of enclosing the manhood beneath both a pair of trousers and a pair of underwear. All this makes for a heated situation, creating sweat and adding bacteria to the area which results in odor.

Diet

However, some men find that making alterations in their diet can have an effect on their overall odor issues, including those specifically related to the manhood. This is because what is consumed by the body has an impact on what is released from the body, including what is released through the sweat glands.

With that in mind, the following are a few tips on changes to the diet that may help reduce the pungency of the male organ odor a man produces.

Water. One of the biggest factors affecting general odor is dehydration. When a man does not drink enough water, his system doesn’t get “flushed” properly. It is easier for odor-causing bacteria to become concentrated and therefore be more potent. Also, there is less chance for the broken-down food components to become more diluted and less strong.

How much water should a person drink every day? This is difficult to answer, as it ultimately depends on a person’s height and weight, level of activity, amount of sweat produced, etc. However, the general guidelines from the Institute of Medicine recommend 13 cups (about 3 liters) every day for an adult male.

A man can also receive hydrating benefits from other fluids; clear juices are best for this. Coffee and tea can have an odor-enhancing effect.

Fruits. Many fruits help to produce a more appealing smell, while at the same time assisting with the hydration issue. Among the fruits recommended for helping to fight odor are plums, pineapple, oranges, grapefruit, lemons, limes and mangoes. So adding some lemon or lime to one’s water helps provide an extra boost.

Herbs. A number of herbs are recommended for a more appealing aroma. Chewing on a few spearmint leaves or adding a little cilantro to the diet can make a difference.

Beware: Fish and some vegetables. While it’s good to include fish and vegetables in the diet, some are more likely to cause odors; figuring out the proper amount to eat and still maintain a healthy balance between diet and odor is helpful. Among the vegetables to approach with a degree of discretion are asparagus, broccoli, onions, garlic and Brussels sprouts.

While altering the diet can help reduce male organ odor, proper hygiene is still essential to get to the root of the problem. Every man’s daily manhood health routine should include the use of a first-rate male organ health crème (health professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil). A crème with vitamin A, which has potent anti-bacterial properties, is especially valuable for fighting persistent male organ odor. Sometimes odor also results from unhealthy skin. Fighting this issue requires a crème that delivers a combination of natural hydrators, such as Shea butter and vitamin E. By keeping the member well-moisturized, the skin will be healthier and better able to withstand odor onslaught.
