Some Short Tips To Prevent Sweating

By Howard Laney


There is nothing as normal as sweating. We sweat during different points of the day. Sweating is a means of regulating your body temperature. Your brain is a very intelligent organ.

If it is too cold, our body tries to produce heat. Meanwhile, if it is very hot, your body produces sweat in order to cool you off. However, excessive sweating may also occur among different individuals.

Although sweating may be normal, excessive sweating isn't at all. However, plenty of people are affected with this. There are a few things that you can try so that you can prevent sweating.

First, you can try using an antiperspirant. What an antiperspirant does is to prevent sweating with the use of specific chemicals that inhibit your sweat glands from producing sweat.

You can find an assortment of antiperspirants but you will notice that most of them all contain aluminum chloride.

You may also want to lose a couple of pounds if you are on the heavier side.

When you have too much fats, you produce more heat than most people do. Just look at it this way, a person who is thin cannot tolerate cold weather unlike a fat person. The reason for this is because fats actually insulate heat.

Third, it may not be a very good idea to drink lots of alcohol when you are out and you want to impress your date by not sweating.

What alcohol does is to elevate your body temperature (notice how some people go red right after drinking some beer). In order for your body to bring your temperature back down, it makes you sweat.

But finally, you can try giving up on coffee or at least limiting your consumption. With caffeine and sugar, coffee is a kind of stimulant.

As a stimulant, it makes your heart pump faster and increases your body temperature causing your to sweat.
