Susan Yarrawonga	If you sprinkle some deodorising Talc in your shoes, that should help. A much better treatment is liquid Chlorophyll which is an internal deodorant that deodorises your interior and reduces the odour of everything that comes out including perspiration.

kurvantidevidasi	hey good morning - my husband has had the same problem usually in the winter, this is how we dealt w/it: i put together a dry mix of cornstarch, Lavender powder(i took dried Lavender herb and ground it up, in a coffee type of grinder), & the herb called Chickweed(powdered that too). every day when he came home from work (he a foreman w/ a construction developement co.), he would go outside remove his shoes, hose off his feet, dry them really well. And since this is a bit messy i would apply the mixture of cornstarch and herbs to his feet outside. then he would wear flip-flops(NO SOCKS),till he went to bed. Also i would recomend you "air-out" your shoes, maybe part of the problem is your shoes are not drying out between useage, and bacteria forms. in the morning b4 work make sure when you put on shoes and socks that your feet are REALLY DRY- found if we put cornstarch mix in shoes it turned to glue(HAHAHA): get some of those "oder-eaters" sounds lame , but if your problem is so bad your asking for help-TRY EVERYTHING! and yes my husbands stinky feet problem was resolved. in the mixture i mentioned above you can find cornstarch in grocery stores-near flour n' stuff-the dry herbs can usually be found in health food stores-do you have a "Whole Foods" near you? they would most certainly have the herbs. good luck :) Was this answer helpful to you?

oldtimekid	There's no "cure" for smelly feet, just because it depends on what's causing the smelly feet in the first place. Since you're asking, I assume you already have washed your feet on a regular basis and hopefully have verified with a doctor that there's no infection of fungus, so we'll look at other things that can actually help. There are two main natural products that can help reduce and possibly eliminate bad odors in your body. There's Chlorophyll and Parsley... each one has certain benefits that can help cleanse your body and facilitate the removal of toxins. If you go by the recommended dose on the bottles, it should help, but if that's not enough after a few weeks, you could try increasing the dose a little, but don't go up much unless a doctor says otherwise Was this answer helpful to you?

Pisces Princess	If you take into account that the odor generally occurs due to our shoes and trainers, it is often a good idea to clean them frequently. You can easily wash trainers in a washing machine and try not to wear the same shoes two days in a row. This is because they need to have at least 24 hours to air out before you wear them again, in order for the sweat to evaporate and dry out. Changing your socks twice a day may also help as the sweat tends to soak into the socks, and if you sweat excessively, your socks will not be able to hold all the sweat in. Before changing socks, be sure to bathe your feet in luke warm water. This will help to clean the feet and make them nice and fresh. If you simply put clean socks onto dirty feet, you will only cause the socks to become dirty quicker than they should, and they will not really help the problem. Sometimes the odor could be caused by an infection, so always check your feet, especially in between the toes, to check for any signs of redness or flakiness. If you do notice anything, be sure to get treatment for it right away as this could stop further odor from occurring. There are some natural remedies you can try including soaking the feet in black tea for around thirty minutes a day per week. The acid within the tea kills the bacteria and it closes the pores which in turn keeps the feet dryer for longer periods of time. To create this remedy you simply need two tea bags and a pint of water. Boil the water and add two quarts of cold water to it. Place the tea bags in the water and then soak the feet. You should find that this method works quite well. Overall, hygiene is the best treatment you can use on foot odor. However, there are products out on the market which eliminate the odor and help the feet to smell nice again. Usually though, these products only mask the problem instead of treating it. If you are in any doubt about what to try or how to eliminate the odor completely, you can always contact your doctor and get their opinion. They will be able to tell you the cause of your particular problem and how you can effectively treat it. Do not suffer in silence, there is help available! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
