5 Things That Might Make You Taste and Smell Weird “Down There”

April 19, 2024
Let’s face it -- how you feel “down there” is an important thing. After all, a girl’s gotta feel good about her nether regions.

In truth, no woman should ever feel bad about her lady parts. What other bodily region could deliver the miracle of life AND supercharged orgasms all in one perfectly designed package?

The thing is, many things can make that magical area taste and smell weird. That’s because foods and other lifestyle factors can directly transcend to the taste and smell of your sex organs.

Sound crazy? It isn’t.

“The foods we consume are digested by the body and carried through the bloodstream to various glands and tissues,” Dr. Barbara Bartlik told Glamour. “The smell and taste of food molecules we ingest can be released through the secretions produced by these glands and tissues, resulting in a noticeable difference in our body fragrance and flavor.”

This means that when it comes to all things romantic, you need to know just how your body is affected by what you consume. Check out these five things that wreak havoc on the taste and smell of your vagina -- and one fruit that can spice things up for the better. Your SO will thank you later.
