How do you get the sweat, body smell out of sheets?

I am a pretty clean person. And neither me or my husband sweat a lot at night but even once I have washed our bedding, it dosn't smell fresh. It still has that 'sweat' smell. I use Tide %26amp; I always use a fabric softener. What else can I put in the laundry?? What will break down that odor?

wash repeatedly until the smell is gone in hot water, detergent and vinegar...sounds terrible but works

Bleach, or if it's colred, color safe bleach
Reply:youmay need to wash the matress cover as well.. i usually do that with bleach..
Reply:Maybe some bleach.
Reply:Are the sheets old? Does your room have a scent? Do your clothes smell? You need to completely clean your room, air it out, and buy new sheets.
Reply:hot water.





Stop the agitation and let them soak for a few minutes extra.
Reply:Try bleach for colors Or baking soda in the wash.
Reply:add bleach to the wash load if the sheets are white/Chlorox II for colors if they are colored).. also change the fabric softener to Febreeze (by bounce).
Reply:I saw something new yesterday at Wal-Mart made by Febreeze. I think you let your clothes soak in it. It is for getting the odor out of smelly clothes.
Reply:You got no choice, you will sweat anyway.
Reply:.....soak them overnight in fabric softner or air them out on the terrace....
Reply:Hot water %26amp; bleach if it's really bad. Wash your mattress bad too. If you don't have a mattress pad and the odor still persists, maybe it's your mattress. What about a different detergent?


Do you have a water softener? Is so, and you haven't cleaned your water softener lately it will produce stinky water.
Reply:wash the mattress cover, and don't over stuff the washing machine
Reply:Try one of the detergents aimed at getting out smells. I think AIM or GAIN have one that will do that and they also leave a great smell on your laundry. Also, try using hot water and putting some baking soda in the water. Maybe trying spraying them with fabreze before washing them might help. And, you might want to try spraying the mattress with Fabreze while the sheets are washing just incase the smell is coming from the mattress. Good luck!
Reply:Try putting some baking soda in your wash along with Tide and fabric softner. Bleach oughta do it took, however, it's hard on your fabrics if used too often.
Reply:Try to put half the amount of clothes in the machine, and use a liquid detergent. Throw in two sheets of Bounce - just to see - and for the sheets, anyway, use a hot water wash. If all that doesn't work, maybe it's time for some new sheets;-)
Reply:Oxyclean
Reply:buy new sheets. if washing them %26amp; fabric softener isn't doing enough, then go for a different material.
Reply:I agree with putting baking soda in the wash. But also air out your mattress fairly frequently, if possible, put outside for 2 or 3 hours every 3 or 4 months. And spray it with febreze every time you change sheets. This should help also. Good luck!!

What to do about smelly sweat?

I shower daily and apply an antiperspirant/deodorant but I still smell bad. I also use an antibacterial soap. I don't know what to do. I have tried drysol and cut out stuff like onions and garlic from my diet. I don't sweat excessively but whenever I do sweat it smells horrible. It is ruining my social life and kids at school avoid me.

I feel sorry for you, but awesome question....


Something internally is going on.


try taking baths 3x a week in EPSOM SALT you will find it in your local drugstore. It comes in a carton like milk .Usually no more than $3.and will be near rubbing alcohol %26amp; H2O2. The salts release toxins from the skin. You just run a tub full of water, add bubble bath, add e-salts right before you jump in, and soak in it. You should see/smell a difference within 1week!!





*this is an old fashioned remedy*
What to do about smelly sweat?
You need to find out the root cause by seeing your doctor. There are many reasons why someone might have offensive odors. Could be a medical condition, something you eat, or could be a reaction to something you use like soap or a particular deodorant or something. Best bet is a trip to the DOC!
Reply:Try cutting back on strong vegis such as broccoli and stay away from fried foods. You can also apply deoderant to the feet, use a body spray or baking soda to the body after a shower. Change out your shoes and let the old ones dry fully over 24 hours to decrease bacteria. You can also try the herbal section for natural herbal deodorizers to ingest.
Reply:Sweat to begin with, doesn't have an odor. It's only when the sweat is combined with bacteria on the skin, that odor arises. I don't think anti-bacterial soaps are all that great for your body. Try using a mild soap like Dove, or ivory. Make sure that your shirts are being washed thoroughly. And make sure your deodorant/antiperspirant hasn't been used by a dirty person. also when you wash under your arms, use a wash cloth instead of just using your hand. That's more effective.


Morning glisten... late night laundry sweat shop smell!?

well you know how they say women don't sweat they glisten? NO I SWEAT AND HARD! becasue my workouts are first thing in the morning, my damp clothes are sitting in my car all day while i'm at work. by the time i get home and get them to the laundry, they make the clothes i wash them with stink even when i use extra detergent and softner! AH! NOBODY WANTS TO BE THE SMELLY GIRL! helpfull ideas!!?!!
Morning glisten... late night laundry sweat shop smell!?
Wash your gym clothes separately... Have a whole weeks worth of gym clothes, that way it makes up a load of laundry. Get a detergent with baking soda - I think Arm and Hammer makes a laundry detergent. You could also add a cup of apple cider vinegar to the rinse cycle - Vinegar is an excellent odor killer and it will soften your clothing.

Try putting some baking soda or white vinegar in with the laundry in addition to the detergent. Otherwise, take your clothes home first and hang them somewhere to dry before you go to work.


What is sweat?

What is sweat and why does it make you loose weight? I've always been curious to know.
What is sweat?
Urea and water. Its probablyy right but why cant you just look it up on google or something?
What is sweat?
it's weakness leaving the body
Reply:sweat is a mixture mainly of water, urea and sebum from your pores, used to cool your body down. its not actually sweat so much that causes you to lose weight....its the expenditure of energy/heat. food is measured in calories, and those calories are assigned by how long it takes to heat it/implement enough energy to use it up basically. it doesnt take long to "burn up" a celery stick, but it would take way longer to burn oh lets say a pizza or something. i hope this makes sense :)
Reply:It's just toxins leaving the body and it's a way to cool the body down as you heat up the furnace inside you through exercise. It's a cleansing of your insides through your pores.
Reply:My field is in fashion, as a result many people ask me how they can slim down. My answer is always the same: good diet and exercise. But I found this great product which I think helps a lot in the process. I recommend you check this website

My hands sweat often regardless of temperature or anxiety; how can I limit and or stop this?

I think my hands sweat most often when I'm sitting in a comfortable environment or when I'm holding something. Anything you know that works?





Thanks!

you could go to the doctor and see if they have something for you.

I have same problem, I heard its hyperhydrosis(something like that), what I do is just put baby powder on my hands, bad thing is it wears off after awhile.
Reply:Hyperhidrosis can be caused by food allergies, or a mineral/vitamin deficiency. I had it for a long time before learning this.





Check out this article about hyperhidrosis, grains, and sugars. Scroll about halfway down the page.

I had hyperhidrosis and other symptoms for many years. I tried all the usual treatments including ETS surgery, prescriptions, antiperspirants, botox, etc. The surgery was most helpful but several years later hyperhidrosis began to return.





This year I was diagnosed with food allergies due to celiac disease. I eliminated wheat, dairy, and sugar from my diet. I stopped all prescriptions and began taking supplements with B Vitamins, Folic Acid, magnesium and other minerals.
