So smelly, in fact, that during the Middle Ages, people in Europe wore necklaces made of a string of garlic cloves to ward off witches. So, it was more than surprising to learn that scientists have figured out that one of the smells that women like their men to have is the scent of good ol' garlic. Garlic Makes the Heart Grow Fonder? This is the way the study unfolded. In 2016, scientists from Charles University, in the Czech Republic recruited 82 women to judge various odors as in terms of pleasantness, attractiveness, masculinity and intensity. Prior to the judging, the scientists assembled 42 men, divided them into two groups. One group ate no garlic. The other group ate garlic either raw or in tablets. The men then wore sweat pads under the arms to collect their body odors. Let the sniffing commence! Then, the women were asked to sniff the 42 body odor pads and judge them. After a week, the scientists next reversed the groups of men, so that the men who had eaten no garlic before were given garlic to eat and the men who had eaten garlic were given none. The switching was done so that any influence on the judging of a man's natural body odor was eliminated. All the men again were given fresh body pads to collect their odor The women then judged the body pads again. At the end of the test, for every given men, the women judged their odor as more "pleasant, attractive" after they had eaten garlic. Why Does Eating Garlic Make Your Body Odor More Attractive to Women? We all know that garlic makes your breath smell almost unbearably bad, so the test results would undoubtedly have been different had the women been asked to sniff the breath of men after they ate garlic. But what garlic does to a man's body odor is more complicated. Body odor is what results after bacteria that live on your skin eat the compounds excreted by your sweat glands. So, odor depends not just on what is excreted but also on the particular species of bacteria that does the eating. We don't know which particular species of bacteria likes to eat the garlic-infused compounds. But what we do know is that the result of that eating appears to be consistent no matter which man is tested. This would suggest that the bacteria doing the munching are one or more of the most common ones, such as staphylococcus. But what is it about garlic that makes a man's sweat so attractive to women? Again, scientists have a theory. Scientists believe that what woman are really sniffing is evidence of health. This makes sense since garlic is one of nature's most powerful antioxidants. Eating garlic reduces the levels of oxidants in your blood, and improves immune function by killing fungus and bacteria. Evolutionarily speaking, it would make sense for women to have developed a keen sense of smell to be able to sort through and select to mate with the healthiest of men. These men would be more likely to produce healthy offspring, which is the goal of evolution. So what goes in the mouth as garlic comes out the skin as the sweet smell of health and virility. Onions May Have the Same Effect Onions and garlic share similar functions in our diet and in terms of their effects on our health. Eating onions is likely to produce the same attractive body smell that eating garlic does. But Don't Eat Too Much Meat with Your Garlic or You'll Spoil The Magical Effect The same team from Charles University conducted a similar experiment on the how eating red meat affects body odor attractiveness in 2006. They assembled 17 men and 30 women to do the experiment. What they found was that when men ate no meat, their body odor was judged as "significantly more attractive, more pleasant, and less intense" than when they ate red meat. Hold the burgers and take that order of fries with garlic, please.
