How to remove sweat from your feet and hands

Sweating either in the hands, feet or other areas of the body is a completely natural phenomenon that occurs when the body needs to reset its temperature and for this it releases this compound that ends up evaporating in our skin. However, although it is normal, for people who suffer from sweating constantly, it can become quite uncomfortable and annoying, especially if it happens to you during work or on a date.

When it comes to abnormal sweating, there are different medical treatments and even surgical interventions to reduce this compound of the organism. However, they can be quite expensive, so in the following article we will explain how to remove sweat from your feet and hands with home remedies.

Baking soda for sweating of the hands and feet

If you're wondering how to remove sweat from your feet and hands, baking soda should be included in your options. Baking soda is a natural product that has a high content of alkaline substances. Thanks to its composition, this product is a powerful regulator that balances the natural pH of the skin and, therefore, manages to control sweating in these parts of the body. In addition, in the event that sweat produces a bad smell (especially on the feet), baking soda also manages to neutralize fetidity due to its antiperspirant power.

Preparation and treatment

• In the case of hands: you will have to add in a bowl of hot water 1 or 2 tablespoons of baking soda. When it dissolves, dip your hands in the mixture and let them sit for 10 minutes.
• In the case of the feet: you will have to mix in a container 2 tablespoons of baking soda with 2 tablespoons of mineral water until forming a paste. Apply the mixture on the feet, let it sit for 15 minutes and then remove the paste with warm water.

How to Stop Sweating on your Hands and Feet with Sage Tea

In addition to baking soda, we can also try sage tea to control excessive sweating on both hands and feet. Sage is a medicinal plant that has excellent thermoregulatory properties, that is, they can both remove sweat in these parts of the body and regulate the activity of the sweat glands. In addition to this benefit, sage also controls the bad smell produced by excessive sweating, since it has antiperspirant and astringent properties that neutralize it.

Preparation and treatment

1. Add a cup of mineral water to a saucepan and bring to a boil.
2. When the water reaches its boiling point, add 5-6 sage leaves and let them boil for 15 minutes.
3. Turn off the heat, cover the saucepan and let the leaves rest for about 5 more minutes.
4. Finally, strain the leaves and tomato the infusion.

To reduce excessive sweating, you will have to take 1 cup a day of this infusion.
