Namaste, Your concerns — persistent body odor with excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) along with weight loss and reduced body strength — indicate metabolic imbalance with pitta involvement along with possible vata aggravation affecting nourishment. The focus should be on balancing body heat, improving metabolism, and restoring nourishment. Avoid very spicy, sour, and processed foods, as they can increase body odor and sweating. Prefer balanced meals instead of very high protein and very low carbs. Include rice, whole grains, ghee, milk, soaked almonds, and dates to support healthy weight. Drink adequate water and maintain regular meal timings. Avoid excessive fasting or restrictive diets. Maintain proper hygiene, but also support internal balance. Wear breathable cotton clothes and avoid synthetic fabrics. Stress management and proper sleep are important, as they can influence sweating. Ayurvedic medicines with dose and timing: Chandanasava – 15 ml with equal water, twice daily after food Dhatri Rasayan – 1 teaspoon, once daily in the morning Guduchi Satva – ½ teaspoon once daily with water External care: Use herbal powders like sandalwood (chandan) or multani mitti paste on sweat-prone areas 2–3 times a week These are traditionally used to help reduce excessive sweating, control body odor, and support overall metabolism and nourishment. Since you also have significant weight loss, it is important to monitor overall health and rule out underlying causes if not already done. With consistent care, improvement can be seen gradually over a few weeks. Consultation can help tailor this further to your needs.

When body odor continues even after bathing it usually means there is excess sweating along with internal toxin buildup and imbalance in digestion and metabolism in Ayurveda we see this as ama along with pitta and vata disturbance and your weight loss and loss of body fat tells me your body tissues are getting depleted which is why you are looking very thin and weak You need to work on both cleansing and nourishing at the same time do not skip meals eat simple warm food like rice moong dal ghee and add soaked almonds dates and milk if your digestion allows avoid spicy sour junk and packaged food because it worsens odor and sweating For internal support you can take avipattikar churna at night with warm water to clear toxins and improve digestion take chandraprabha vati twice daily after food to help with sweating and metabolism and sarivadyasava after food to reduce body odor and purify the system For rebuilding your strength start ashwagandha arishta after food and if you feel more weakness you can add shatavari with milk at night this will slowly help your body regain weight and strength For external care you can bathe with neem or triphala water and use sandalwood or multani mitti paste in areas where sweating is more wear loose cotton clothes and avoid synthetic fabrics At the same time please do not ignore basic tests like thyroid vitamin b12 vitamin d blood count and sugar because continuous weight loss needs to be checked properly This condition can improve but you have to be consistent and patient because your body has taken time to reach this state and it will take some time to rebuild balance if you want you can share your appetite digestion sleep and periods pattern so I can fine tune this further for you
