Why probiotics? Our bodies naturally contain bacteria that feeds off our sweat and some of these bacteria produce a by-product of this feeding process called “thioalcohols” and this is what we know as “body odor”. You see, it's not our sweat that stinks; it's the bacteria that feed off it but not all underarm bacteria produce “thioalcohols” and that’s where we come in. Our probiotic deodorant attacks body odor at the source. We include ten strains of 50 billion culture good bacteria that don’t produce odors and these bacteria set up a fight for living space with that bad odor producing bacteria you don’t want. You get longer lasting and more reliable odor protection.
