Do you dry fast without any body odor?

I get this musty body odor during a dry fast. It can get so bad the other members of my household don’t even want to come close! It is getting less and less each time I do a dry fast (this is my 3rd one), however the longer I do the fast, the more smelly I get.

So I guess I might have to do the longer ones now to heal from it (>3 days) which is currently impractical.

I believe this could be from mold exposure in the past.

My question is, do people here dry fast and not have any body odor at all?

Answer

Why do you think it’s mold exposure? I don’t pay attention to BO on dry fasts, but one time I wet fasted for 4 days and I stopped having underarm odor during that time. Like I didn’t even need to use deodorant or anything. Completely went away and my pits used to stink so bad others noticed it. It came back again after I started eating. But also I eat a lot of crap so I think that’s the reason it’s so bad.

On any type of fasts I get horrid morning breath though.
