My feet stink!
This is so embarrassing,
but my feet always stink. I can’t take off my shoes in front of anyone because
the smell is so bad. What can I do?
No one’s feet smell
fabulous. Why? Blame bacteria. Sweaty and damp conditions make these icky organisms
multiply, causing that not-so-swell odor to come creeping out of your shoes.
And depending on the kind of bacteria found on your feet, some people’s
tootsies stink extra bad. To minimize foot funk, always wear cotton socks and
try alternating among different shoes each day, giving each pair time to dry
out (cleaning them regularly helps as well). And when you’re just hanging
around at home, go barefoot. That includes skipping socks while you’re
sleeping. Bacteria are eliminated when your feet have a chance to breathe—and
that way, others around you can breathe easy, too.
