Wouldn't you still need to prevent the sweat in the first place? I mean even if it doesn't smell it is still annoying and visible on shirts, etc.
And there is no reason to sell a 1 usd stone. You can properly sell it for 50.

Sweat doesn't inherently smell. The foods you eat affect how you smell, though not specifically because of your sweat. If you eat a lot of spicy food then your whole body will be releasing those aromas.

Ahhh, biologically it isn't - it's good to clean pores, keep you cool, etc..

Sweat on some parts of the body will keep you cool. Trapped inside a joint, not so much.

While sweat itself doesn't have much smell, stale sweat will smell due to bacteria. What you eat won't be able to change this.
