Your random Facts with Fareed Diamond Khimani
this Morning all about body odour

1. Disgust. Scientists have developed a “Body Odor Disgust Scale” (BODS). The BODS likely reflects perceived vulnerability to disease. Remember that sweat changes smell based on pathogen exposure, which decreases the smell’s attractiveness to women.

2. Different flavors. Different people harbor different bacteria in their armpits and other crevices. These different types of bacteria result in different smells, such as sour, meaty, oniony, or rotten egg.

3. Deodorants. Deodorants work in various ways: They kill bacteria, cover odors with perfumes, and decrease sweat production.

4. Function. Human body odor may help with mate choice in two ways: 1) inbreeding avoidance and 2) assessing the health status of a potential mate. With regard to inbreeding avoidance, the smell of a person’s sweat could convey a person's complement of immune system genes (ie, human leukocyte antigens). As for health status, sweat’s smell changes with disease and infection.

Competitive art used to be in the Olympics.

Between 1912 and 1948, the Olympic Games awarded medals in sculpture, music, painting, and architecture, according to Smithsonian magazine.

John Copley of Britain won one of the final medals: At 73, he would be the oldest medalist in Olympic history if his silver, awarded for his 1948 engraving Polo Players, were still counted. And for more trivia that's hard to believe, check out these 50 Absurd Facts That Sound Made Up.

Some cats are actually allergic to humans.

Though it's uncommon—since humans bathe more than your typical animal, and don't shed as much hair or skin—some animals can still be allergic to humans, according to Popular Science. (However, it's more often because of the perfume or cologne we wear, or the soap we use.) And for more trivia about our furry friends, here are 75 Animal Facts That Will Change the Way You View the Animal Kingdom.

Oranges aren't naturally occurring fruits.
Oranges may be an iconic fruit, but they are not a naturally occurring one, as The Telegraph points out. In fact, oranges are a hybrid of tangerines and pomelos, also known as "Chinese grapefruit," and they were originally green—not, well, orange. Oranges are a subtropical fruit, but now that they exist in more temperate climates, they lose their chlorophyll-induced green and become their more familiar color when the weather warms up.

New York was briefly named "New Orange.

Yes, before it was the Big Apple, it was New Orange. As History reports, when the Dutch captured New York from the English in 1673, they renamed it New Orange in honor of William III of Orange. The following year, the English regained control and ditched the "Orange."
