No. Does the sweat smell normal, or does it have a very foul, acrid odor?

Hi,

I did sweat a lot when I was suffering real bad from MC. As my health got better, the sweating subsided.

However, I have started sweating again, especially during the night. Mostly on the upper part of my body, where the face around my nose is all wet and I have to get up and wash my face and have something to drink 3 times during the night. The smell reminds me of the smell from the soap the concierge used when cleaning the house I lived in in France during the late 60's... And

This time, I blame the sweating on the iodine experiment I did (i.e. with Iodoral who has a lot of nasty fillings, one of them being a chemical detergent), but I wonder how long I will have to suffer from the detox (or allergic) reactions from Iodoral?

Magnesium deficiency can give sweat a very distinctive, strong, unpleasant odor. But I have no idea how the soap used by conceirges in France during the late 6os might have smelled. :grin:

Tex,
I just imagined that I was sweating out the detergent ingredients of Iodoral that I tried some weeks ago. Both urine and sweat have since then had the same specific odor just like the smell of the detergent in the French soap. As you know, people's memories are often connected to smell :-)

Yes, my earliest memories are of the smell of onion fields just across the road from our house when I was 2 or 3 years old. I can still smell those onions. :grin:
