How to Fix a Sweaty Shirt

Sweat is a necessary part of life because it is the function by which the body cools itself. However, sweat is not so pleasant on clothing. A shirt that is exposed to sweat usually has a strong odor and is prone to accumulating stains, especially in the armpit areas. If you want to deodorize a sweaty shirt and remove unattractive sweat stains from the fabric, do so by using a common household product that you may already have in your cabinet.
