So on a whim, a semi-recalled memory and a hunch, I am endeavouring to branch off from the " temperature" issue necessary for processing b.o. in the body, in favor of the acid/ph levels instead. If in the process of discovery, temperature does come into play, then I will note as such.

I have the inclination that it is more to do with the ph/ acidity.

The link above is about the environment and optimal ph necessary. Given that b.o. is a conglomerate of protein, hormones and such, I strongly suspect that the enzymes need to breakdown everything to the amino level to be reabsorbed is more chemical than ambient internal temp.

Please feel free to add or discuss this hypothesis along with me.

It is my hope that we can put the temperature quandary to bed and make b.o. more user-friendly for all gender and consumers.

This link describes enzyme activity up to and at body temp. Anything Above actually denatures it. Proper ph=2

So apparently temperature does play part in the activity of the enzymes to make them active.
Dependent on which enzymes nd where. ( I.e. pepsin in the stomach) ( pepsin. ...Pepsi. .is that where the soda got its name?). I am beginning to think know both ph & temperature work together.

Soooo... with the proper ph and proper body temp..perhaps the b.o. will work for all?
Ph for stomach=2
Ph for small intestine=7.5.

which makes me wonder now: apple cider vinegar is supposed to be great for weight loss as is anything pickled. ..sauerkraut, pickles, pickled veggie..perhaps due to both natural enzymes and the ph control of the vinigar they are pickled in.

Also, acidophilus, natural " good" bacteria that is in our stomach are wiped out by bad, an imbalance occurs, enzymes not able to do their job?

Any gastrointestinal Dr in the house?

Pre-biotic , probiotic, enzymes and co-enzymes. Of particular interest is the necessity and reaction of enzymes in the endocrine system. ( see enzymes on endocrine at bottom of link. The whole article is good. )

Enzymes affect the ph for endocrine system.

It is beginning to seem that the flora in digestive system plays a big part.
