Body odor and yin-yang balance according to Traditional Chinese Medicine.
According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, body odor is not only related to sweat or external hygiene, but also reflects the internal balance of yin and yang in the body. When yin and yang are in harmony, the body regulates temperature well, and sweat is released lightly with little odor. Conversely, when this balance is disrupted, the skin becomes the body's outlet for internal imbalances, and body odor becomes more pronounced.
