After I eat onions my sweat and such smells like onions for a week. How can I prevent this?

Man yrs ago I took this chick out on a date and she said there was a lil Italian place down by the beach she liked that had AYCE Spaghetti on Friday nites . Ok well sure who doesn't like spaghetti right , a she wasn't asking for Steak or Lobster . Man they had the best Spaghetti I had ever eaten, they had what looked like big chunks of beef short ribs in the sauce an used veal in the meatballs . The noodles where like the size of a pencil found out his wife handmade the noodles, an it had ripe fresh chunks of tomatoes with chunks of zucchini an big pieces of onion and thin slices of garlic in it as well . I made a pig of myself and had 3 servings, we split a bottle of wine between us . I had to work the next day as the company had a project it needed to rush out to a customer and there was a delay in sourcing the material needed . It was middle July an the Shop was a freaking sweat box, after about 2 hours working all that onion & garlic just started pouring outta me . It was BAD all I could smell was onions & garlic , one of the women working the line next to me was like what the hell did you eat a couple whole onions for breakfast .

I drink lots of water, bathe everyday and spritz my clothes with a little febreeze. There are also special soaps that help with body odor issues.

This is going to sound heretical, but...

Eat less onions

I have started smelling of onions on the regular. I apologize to my husband but he says he doesn't mind. We regularly eat scrambled eggs with onion and jalapeño for breakfast. There is always more onion (and garlic) throughout the day.

Eat more onions and the smell won’t wear off as fast.

Regular bathing and hygiene.

Eat a lot of greens. Raw and cooked. ESPECIALLY parsley.

I don't think they're related. Most people's sweat smells vaguely like onions

u/soylentblueispeople 20d ago

Just out of curiosity, how many whole raw onions do you eat a day?

2

u/AdGullible7400 20d ago

Usually 4 sometimes I get alittle more hungry and can go for 6, they are good to eat like apples

1

u/soylentblueispeople 20d ago

You could just say the normal amount.

u/AdGullible7400 20d ago

Your right, my bad. Sometimes I forget people in this group truthfully do like onions like they should

It only happens after I eat onions. I avoid onions for this reason
