Foot odor is mainly due to heavy perspiration in the feet on which the bacteria thrives and excretes waste which smells bad. It also depends on your footwear choice.

  • Soak your feet in strong black tea for 20 minutes.


    The tannic acid present in tea will help to fight the bacteria on your feet.
  • Apple cider vinegar also helps to treat the foot odor. Soak your feet in warm water with 2 tbsp of apple cider vinegar.


  • Always wear clean cotton socks.
  • If the smell is also coming form your shoes, don’t wear that shoes for 2 days and keep them in sun to dry.
  • Apply baby powder if your feet sweat excessively before wearing shoes.
