Dear readers, have you ever wondered why our clothes sometimes stink so much that you want to vomit?Actually, the ** behind this is ourselves - yes, you heard it right, it's our dear body!

You may not believe it, but it's the truth. Did you know?Most of the dirt on clothes is actually not dust and stains from the outside world, but from our own body secretions – sweat, sebum, etc. If these natural oils are not thoroughly washed off during the washing process, they will sink into the fibers of the fabric, and like chewing gum sticking to the hair, it will be difficult to remove.

To make matters worse, these greases are very viscous, and they easily attract all sorts of dirt and dust. As a result, they become a perfect "petri dish", providing a breeding ground for bacteria and fungi to multiply.

If you find that the sweat, cells, and various other gland secretions left on your clothes react with bacteria to produce volatile organic compounds (yes, you heard that right, that's what causes the smell), then your clothes may become smelly.

So, the next time you notice that your clothes smell, don't be in a hurry to complain about the laundry detergent or the weather. Take a look in the mirror to see if you're producing too much oil. If so, then take good care of your personal hygiene.

After all, the smell of clothes will not only make others shy away from you, but it will also make you feel extremely embarrassed and uncomfortable. So, for the sake of your image and health, take care of your personal hygiene!
