Although sweating is essential for the body but excessive sweating is known as hyperhidrosis(condition characterized by excessive sweating). Though there are loads of antiperspirants available in the market but today we tell you some diet changes and food items that help stop excessive sweating and save you from embarrassment too.
Tomato Juice
It shrinks the pores and reduces chronic sweat. Eat a tomato-rich diet or add them to your daily salad to control excessive sweating. If you do not like eating them apply its juice on your underarms and allow it to dry for 10 minutes before rinsing it off.
Apple Cider Vinegar
This helps regulate blood sugar, flushes out toxins and relieves heartburn with acid reflux. When applied to the skin it acts as astringent that helps to remove bacteria and close up pores. If you sweat excessively, drinking a vinegar concoction or applying it to the sweaty area each night will help in reducing sweat.
Avoid Spicy Food
Spicy foods like hot peppers increase sweat production, so avoid anything spicy ..
Wheatgrass Juice
It is a natural detoxifier and is also rich in vitamin A, C, B12, and folic acid. Drinking only a tablespoon of wheatgrass daily helps fight sweat and even reduces the odour from it.
Lemon
The acid in lemon reduces excessive sweating, so either rub half a lemon on your underarms or mix a small amount of its juice with baking soda and apply it with cotton on the body. After keeping it for 30 minutes rinse it off.
Potatoes
Potassium-rich foods like potatoes and broccoli help to push water out of the body and due to this the excess water is absorbed and you are relieved from sweating. Add potassium-rich foods to your diet!
