BUN is a chemical produced by the metabilism of protein. It is used as an indicator of possible kidney disease. While on the Zone diet my BUN was quite high. When I went to a vegetarian diet the BUN dropped dramatically and the BO problem went away.
A high meat diet, specifically beef, produces a lot of BUN. BUN will exude through the pores and increase body odor in sweat. I control it by eating fish instead of beef. Also I prefer beans and tofu to meat.
If you like meat, then drink a lot of water to dilute the BUN in the bloodstream.
