Those of you who suffer with excessive underarm sweating know how difficult it is to not be able to wear what you want, to worry non stop about those sweat marks... Well, there are ways to deal with excessive underarm sweating naturally by using common ingredients...
Causes of excessive sweating
Axillary Hyperhidrosis, or excessive underarm sweating can have many causes. Sometimes, the cause is neurological. Sometimes, metabolism goes haywire and causes the sweat glands to produce more than usually. Often, people find themselves covered in sweat when the weather is humid and hot (I can relate, being in Georgia!). Stress and nervousness prompt the sweat glands to go into high production. Whatever the cause is, you need to consult a dermatologist to determine what your problem is.
There are several options you could resort to: antiperspirants, botox, and surgery. But, why not try and deal with this problem naturally by using some of these home remedies:
Baking soda
Baking soda is a base that returns the skin's pH to normal. To help prevent sweating, apply some baking soda on your armpits after taking a shower. Baking soda regulates the skin's pH but also helps kill the excess bacteria that can cause body odor.
Vinegar
Not only it unglues the bond that holds the dead skin cells together, its acids again help the skin in regulating its pH. Apply it on clean skin a few times a day.
Citrus fruits
Lime or lemons are acidic. They are also astringents, meaning they shrink the pores which in turn reduces sweating. Citric fruits help cleanse the skin and eliminate bacteria causing the odor.
To use it, cut a lemon (or lime) in half and rub it against the skin. Again, make sure you take a shower beforehand.
Finally, take showers often and wear cotton based clothes.
