Red Meat
I guess being a vegetarian MAY actually have some benefits, such as better body odor. In a study which was published in Chemical Senses, women rated men’s smells as “more attractive and pleasant” in those who did not eat meat for two weeks.
But it’s not clear yet how much meat can really affect body odor. Can red meat be really making you smell worse? The short answer is: yes if you were to go by the results of a different study in 2006, in which women were asked to rate the perspiration samples of vegetarian men and those of meat-eaters.
The answer was unanimous. The women rated the samples of meat-eaters as the LEAST appealing. Why could this be the case? The researchers think that it has to do with red meat being harder to digest.
So there you go, here’s one more reason to reduce the amount of red meat in your life.
