My body chemistry is totally different after weaning DD and none of the eco-friendly deodorants I've tried are cutting it. I smell like I haven't showered in a week by mid-morning. Please recommend your deodorant. Thanks!

    I have never been able to get any of the eco friendly deodorants to work for me whether pregnant, nursing or not.  I tried baking soda and it made me itch, witch hazel and vinegar burned and made me smell worse than if I didn't use anything.  Eventually I just gave up on using anything.  My body went through a few weeks of adjustment where I smelled HORRID, but eventually it all evened out.  I ave to "freshen" up once in the middle of the day, but I don't smell.  I notice that if I eat a lot of processed foods or sugar my body odor will change and I will smell more like BO, but as long as I am putting natural foods into my body I smell just fine.

    First, be prepared for a bit of a transition. I found it took a little time for my body to adjust. Also, I found that most of the eco versions I tried only last about 12 hours, so be prepared to re-apply in the afternoon.

    I've had good luck with Crystal and with Alba Clear Enzyme Lavender (purple container)
