Surprisingly, the group that consumed raw garlic was rated as having a more pleasant and masculine scent, enhancing their attractiveness. This effect is attributed to garlic’s compounds, which, when metabolized, are excreted through the skin, particularly in areas like the armpits.
Garlic’s antibacterial properties play a significant role in this outcome. It reduces the number of microorganisms responsible for the typical unpleasant odor, particularly after physical exertion. Therefore, garlic consumption can lead to a “sweeter” scent from the armpits, positively impacting intimate relationships.
This study not only underscores garlic’s health benefits but also introduces a novel perspective on how diet can influence personal attractiveness and social interactions.
