Excessive sweating

Sweating is a completely normal metabolic process of the human body, but it can still be extremely unpleasant for many people: the skin glistens, sweat patches form and eventually an unpleasant odour develops. And yet sweating has a very simple and convincing function: to cool the body down, because in order for sweat to evaporate, it needs energy, which comes from the heat of the skin. Sweat consists of 99% water.

The composition of sweat depends on various factors, but as a rule, the ion concentration is lower than the composition of other body fluids, such as blood, which is why it is referred to as a hypotonic fluid.

Possible consequences of excessive sweating

Consequences

Those affected are often very self-conscious around others and do not dare to shake hands with them because their palms are so sweaty. Highly visible sweat patches constantly form under the armpits and, despite intensive personal hygiene, sweat odour can occur repeatedly, which can be very unpleasant for partners or in professional situations. However, in addition to thorough personal hygiene, there are several ways to curb excessive sweating.

Too little can reduce the effect, too much can irritate the skin. Here's how to apply the optimal amount.

What to do about excessive sweating

odaban® offers a gentle, inexpensive and highly effective method of controlling perspiration problems, which has been available in pharmacies for decades. The aluminium chloride it contains, in the appropriate concentration, ensures that the sweat ducts in the treated areas narrow. At the same time, a complex is formed which closes the sweat outlets like a plug, effectively regulating perspiration.
