I don't doubt it. But a few anecdotes of success don't prove it will work for me or everyone. I have certainly met greasy people who smelled, although I have no idea what their bathing habits were. Everyone's body may be different.

To clarify, I am not saying it doesn't work, only that a few claims in a forum aren't "proof." I may even give it a try.

I actually had (slightly) worse issues with body oder while using soap and shampoo every day. I didn't expect any positive change going the no soap route, the whole experience has been surprising.

Anyway, worked for me. I'm also a fairly skinny guy with a low body fat percentage, not sure if that made any difference.
