Advice for Cutting Down on Excessive Sweating and Body Odor

By Diego Braucht


All humans sweat. Everybody has to cope with body odor, at some point or another. Sweating and body odor is just a part of being human. Sometimes, however, excessive sweating and body odor can occur. When this happens, what is generally a perfectly normal body function can be quite embarrassing.Nobody yearns to have their body odor conquer the deodorant they're wearing.

If you suffer from excessive sweating and body odor the first thing you need to do is set up a regular bathing schedule. Remembering to shower or bathe each day at a regular time will make the issue less prominent. Odor causing bacteria will be washed away out of your pores each time you bathe or shower. It also helps to rinse off the sweat that may have dried on your skin during the day or night. It may also be necessary to bathe multiple times in a day. You MUST take a bath or shower every day regardless of what barriers may try to keep you from doing it. Are you overweight? This issue of weight can be difficult to talk about. The simple fact is, however, that the more you weigh, the more you are likely to suffer from excessive sweating. The more you weigh, the more work it is for you to move from place to place. We are not saying this to be harsh. It's only the law of physics. The most basic actions take a great deal of effort when you weigh a lot. The more effort you exert, the more likely you are to sweat and the more likely you are to suffer from body odor issues. If you suffer from sweating and body odor issues, one of your first lines of defense should be to get your weight under control.

Sometimes, a change of clothing type won't be enough and medical assistance will be required. Some medications that are common for sweat and body odor treatment are anti anxiety medications and antidepressants. These medications are good at keeping a person calm and even tempered. Staying calm helps because when you get nervous or anxious the body's natural response is to start sweating. Consequently, if you can find a way to stay calm under stressful situations you will reduce the amount you sweat. This in turn lowers the body odor that needs to be covered up.

Applying talcum powder after showering and drying skin can help control wetness. Many often feel a bit like and infant when powdering this way. It is a fact that talcum powder has the power to absorb much of the odor caused by your sweat. You should focus your powdering skills on those areas that sweat the most to help absorb excess sweat and stop that stinky smell. Replacing perfumes and body sprays with talcum powder has great benefits not to mention talcum powders cost less. Everyone greatly dislikes sweat. Sweat might feel good once in a while or during exercise. After that, however, it is slick and slimy. Body odor has never been described as a nice smell. For most of us, body odor is absolutely mortifying-especially when we've done everything to prevent it from occurring.

For some their embarrassment can be quite debilitating. Some good news is there is no need to allow these conditions to burden your lifestyle. Much progress has been made to keep each of these things under control. Whether you just need a more satisfying deodorant or if you might need a type of medication, there is something that will keep you dry and smelling pleasant. Speak to your physician if natural cures don't seem to be working for you.
