Studies Igitt - One in three refrained from fresh underwear

Statistics: Every third German does not put on fresh underwear in the morning
Excessive sweating can often be very uncomfortable, especially in extreme temperatures. If the clothes stick to your body and you stew, it would be best to stay away from other people. Of his fellow human beings one would often wish for a certain "odor distance". Many Germans are not so careful about hygiene. This shows a current survey.

Not every German takes it exactly with the morning hygiene
An international research team reported last year that sweat odor due to certain chemicals can make other people happy, but most are more likely to share the opinion that sweat smells bad. In the current heat, however, it is hard to avoid. To prevent sweat odor in summer temperatures, some people resort to deodorants. However, my experts say that Deo users perspire a lot more on other body parts. In addition, Stiftung Warentest reported a few weeks ago that only half of the deodorants they tested actually protected against odor. The best remedy for "muffing" is still adequate personal hygiene. But not all Germans take it too exactly.

Many start the day without fresh underwear
For example, as part of a recent survey on morning rituals, the institute "myMarktforschung.de" found that personal hygiene on workdays and workdays is the highest priority for Germans after getting up, but for almost half, a morning shower is not routine , More than a third of those surveyed said they would not be wearing fresh underwear in the morning (around 37 percent), and almost half (over 46 percent) were missing out on fresh socks. And: "A small proportion of just under five percent stated that they do not brush their teeth either before or after breakfast," it says in a statement to the survey.

Maybe muffling or bad breath could be prevented, if not so much time would be used for the smartphone. Thirty-seven percent of respondents said that checking their cell phones is one of their morning rituals. A closer attention to the morning hygiene would be happy to work colleagues and seat neighbors. (Ad)
