Heavy Sweating

Heavy sweating can be really embarrassing. Some people just sweat more than others. There is in fact a medical term for this: it's called hyperhidrosis. Many people aren't aware of the fact that it really is a medical condition, they just thing that they somehow have to put up with it. And in fact, that is what SOME doctors still believe until this very day. They still think that heavy sweating is caused by genetics, and that there is nothing you can really do about it. Sure, there are different options like antiperspirants, iontophoresis, surgey and so on. But there are downsides to all of these methods.

On every high-school, there are some boys and girls who sweat more than others. And they usually get picked on and ridiculed by others, specially if they also have body odor. Many people assume that people with body odor simply don't shower enough, or don't know how to use a deodorant - but truth of the matter is, if you have hyperhidrosis, even showering yourself five times a day with strong soaps and shower gels won't necessarily provide solid protection against body odors. Sometimes you just break out in a sweat and all of the sudden "gases" start to evaporate from your skin that have an unpleasant smell. Some foods can in fact make your sweat smell worse (e.g. Indian curries and spices), but there are other factors that play a role too.

It's important that when you suffer from heavy sweating, you realize that there is nothing "wrong with you". It is estimated that bout 3 percent of the population have the same problem, to some extend. It usually first appears in the teenage years, but unfortunately, other than acne, it doesn't go away by itself once we become adults. Many people for example are embarrassed every day when they go to the office, because they sweat more than others. They try to put on several layers of clothing, so that the first layer soaks up all the sweat. Then they change their shirts several times a day, but other people still notice the heavy sweating.
