How Can Body And Breath Odor Be Treated?

Somebody close to me has always had a body and breath odour which I know is not from lack of personal hygeine. I ve suspected depression many times but get a fairly defensive response when I have suggested it and am also reluctant to mention the odour - as do not want to offend if nothing can be done about it.

Well brother I am guessing its ur girlfriend coz woman are more tolerant in these matters n also take care of personal hygiene more n ur sticking close to be bothered. Observe wat kind of odor is it, is it mousy, burnt sugar like or fishy or any other kind. Also take note if it increases after any particular diet. If yes then ask d person to get checkup esp biochemical ones. If not then gift a deodorant or burn scented candles.
