How Can Heavy Sweating be cured?

Heavy Sweating is a condition that is also known by the name of “Hyperhidrosis”. It means a person is sweating four to five times more than normal. Therefore heavy sweating is a bothersome and embarrassing problem. Let us see the common reasons and certain ways that can be tried out to control your sweating.

The most common reasons behind excessive Sweating

Apart from the scorching Summer heat, the following could be the possible reasons behind heavy sweating:

• Being overweight
• Hormonal imbalance in conditions like pregnancy, PCOS, menopause, Hyperthyroidism etc.
• Respiratory dysfunction
• Anger
• Anxiety

• Cardiac problems
• Excess Alcohol consumption

Excess sweating can be differentiated from normal sweating by the following signs:

Ways to reduce sweating in some harmless ways

Now, there are certain habits that you can adopt and certain others that you can ditch. All this to let your body stay cool and control the amount of sweating. Some of these are:

• First of all, increase your intake of water. This way your Kidneys can function better to get rid of wastes in form of urine. Water leads to cooling down of your body. This, in turn, leads to lowering down of the core temperature of your body. As a result, your body does not have to sweat excessively to keep your system temperature regulated.
• Any kind of stress can lead to activation of your parasympathetic system. This could be both at personal or professional levels. Sweating is a result of body switching in a negative mode. So, take up measures like exercising regularly, taking up meditation etc. to reduce your stress levels.
• Reduce the intake dehydrating drinks such as Tea, Coffee and Alcohol. Try avoiding spicy and fried foods. This is because these kinds of foods can stimulate your brain to release certain Neurotransmitters like Acetylcholine. Any kind of foods that stimulate these neurotransmitters lead to excess sweating.
• Avoid use of harsh soaps or deodorants. Instead, take bath with water to which a few drops of aromatic essential oils have been added.

• Least in hot and humid weather, stay away from synthetics and Silks.
• You need to shed those extra Pounds as well to cure heavy sweating.

• Watermelon
• Spinach
• Grapefruit
• Bell peppers
• Olive Oil
