Yes, your skin secretes smells of the foods you eat, if they are especially pungent. Garlic is one food that seeps through. Try doing a natural body cleanse. Just eat green vegetables, egg whites and drink 8 glasses of water for 3 days. Add fish after Day 3. Add whole grains after Day 5. It will get rid of the smell and other toxins. I use to clear up acne.Health Question & Answer
Some foods and drinks are believed to cause excessive sweating in addition to an offensive odor.
*helpful hint* - Try avoiding or minimizing the intake of strong-smelling foods, alcohol, animal products (including dairy products) and spicy foods.
