First let me answer how sweat is excreted. skin is mainly composed of three layers Epidermis,Dermis, and sub cutaneous tissue. > Sweat glands originating from subcutaneous tissue are responsible for releasing sweat. > Sweat mainly comprises water,sodium chloride(NaCl), potassium(K), urea(Nh2CONh2), bicarbonates(Hco3-), calcium(Ca), and excess amino acids. It is important to remember that sodium chloride is nothing but common salt. > In sweat, saltgets dissolved in water and during prespiration, the sweat containing salt passes through the pores of the shirt and shirt becomes wet. >After sometime, water gets evapourated and the salt gets settled on the shirt. > So whatever you see on shirt is the settled salt, and alsourea and if you taste, it is salty.

You should pre-rinse the clothing with water and a cup or so of white vinegar. Wash as usual. If they still have an odor, a final rinse with vinegar will help. Make sure they are clean before using the dryer.

Washing alone doesn't always get the odor out. Soak your shirts, blouses, etc. in 1 cup of baking soda in water. You can also use the spray 'Febreeze' and also use it in your closet, drawers, sofas, etc.

Another way to remove the smell of sweat is to add 1 cup of 20 MULE TEAM BORAX powder, a laundry detergent booster, to hot water in the washing machine and allow to agitate until powder is dissolved. Add clothes and let soak overnight for the most offensive odors. Allow to agitate and run through rinse cycle. Wash again with detergent adding 1/2 cup of Borax each time you wash sweaty clothes to keep them fresh smelling.

The truth about stink is warm + wet = stink. So wash as soon as possible, but always keep as DRY as possible. I sweat like mad but always hang the clothes up to dry until I wash...and after washing, dry immediately and until completely dry. If workout clothes are damp out of the dryer...funk will grow. The most important thing is to be AS DRY AS POSSIBLE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. To get the already present funk out put the clothes in the freezer for a couple of days, but any treatment will only last if after the treatment you wash and keep the clothes DRY.

making a baking soda paste will remove them nasty sweat stains from your shirt.

Here's how you make it:

Mix a bit of baking soda with water until you have a thick paste. Then use a toothbrush to gently brush the paste into your clothing's sweat stains.

Leave the paste saturating the stain for 20 minutes, then rinse it out with cold water and throw your shirt into the laundry on a cold cycle with an oxygenating detergent and there you go you now have a lean sweat-stainless shirt.

Hope this helps :)
