Today’s GMB (Monday, July 18) saw Loose Women star Judi Love appear on the show to discuss her new show, Work in Progress.
However, the conversation soon turned to discussing the heatwave.
And, when Judi revealed her way of dealing with body odour during the heat, it’s fair to say viewers were repulsed.

And during this conversation, Judi revealed the strange way she deals with her body odour during the heat.
To demonstrate how she keeps herself smelling good during the heatwave, Judi bought along a bowl of sweet potatoes and some deodorant.
Judi Love’s body odour tips
Noticing Judi’s props, Ranvir said: “Now most people have a croissant for breakfast, but you appear to have brought a bowl full of sweet potato and some deodorant?”
“For those who are going out into the sun, please wear your deodorant because it’s hard for us, especially when we’re in close proximity with each other,” Judi said.
“And this sweet potato, you can boil it, make it cool and put it under your armpit if you’ve got an odour issue,” she continued.
“What?!” a shocked Ranvir said. “And have those been under your armpits yet or…?” Ed asked.
“No! You have to boil it, mash it, let it cool a little bit, just put it under your armpit and let it draw out the stench!” Judi explained.
She then went on to explain that it’s an “old school method”.
“Can I just say, it’s an education Judi. Everything you say is an education, it’s a joy to have you in,” Ranvir said.

Judi’s method may have worked for her, but some viewers were shocked by it.
“#GMB did Judi Love just recommend putting mashed sweet potato under your arm pits to help with body odour???” one viewer tweeted.
“What ????? Don’t forget to put sweet spuds under your armpits…” another wrote.

“What the [bleep] is this on @GMB sweet potatoes under your arms. Is this news?” another wrote.
Others were just happy to see her on the show. “Big up @1Judilove on @GMB! Great role model! Feeling hot hot hot,” one viewer wrote.
