the claim

Using antiperspirant on the underarms reduces body odor in adults.

the verdict
INSUFFICIENT LEANING
Recorded sources
5 sources for · 0 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that using antiperspirant on the underarms reduces body odor in adults?

Unclear. Several reference and review sources indicate that antiperspirants reduce underarm sweating and that less sweat means less odor-causing bacteria, but none directly measures or states that antiperspirant use reduces body odor in adults as a settled outcome.
