Two Percent Of People Have Armpits That Never Smell
Two percent of people carry an unusual form of a specific gene (ABCC11) that means their armpits never smell.
The finding came from new research involving 6,495 women who are enrolled in the Children of the 90s study at the University of Bristol, England, and was published in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology.
In the study, 117 (2%) of the subjects were lucky enough to carry this gene that allows them to never have to worry about using deodorant. However, the researchers discovered that over 75% of those people with the gene who do not produce under-arm odor still put deodorant on anyway.
Results showed that about 5% of people who do produce odor in their armpits do not use deodorant, while over a fifth (26 out of 117) of those who are not able to produce an odor under their arms do not use deodorant. The scientists pointed out that the difference is statistically significant.
Surprisingly, 78% of people who are not capable of producing an odor still apply deodorant on most days, if not every day.
