Hi,

Since meth is a stimulant, it speeds up heart and increases sweating. The sweat smells foul because the chemicals that meth gets degraded into, are excreted in the sweat. That is why, meth users smell bad and can often by identified by this smell.

I hope you'll consider quitting or at least cutting down.

Best wishes.
