What can you do to combat it?
Start by identifying the root cause. Are you overweight? Consider losing weight. Is stress or anxiety triggering sweat? Address the source to reduce perspiration. If these don't apply, try the following anti-sweat strategies:
- Choose lightweight fabrics like cotton, wool, or linen.
- Limit caffeine and alcohol intake.
- Steer clear of heavily spiced or spicy foods.
- Change into fresh clothes more frequently.
- Apply an antiperspirant with aluminum salts before bedtime.
- Shower daily but use soap sparingly.
- Thoroughly dry off after bathing.
