Sweating is normal, everyone does it and everyone should. It is the body’s way of getting rid of toxins in your body. It is a physiological process that our body uses for defensive purposes and is a natural phenomenon in our body just like when our stomachs digest food and when we breathe.
Hyperhidrosis however, is a medical condition that causes perspiration far greater than the physiological needs of the body. Hyperhidrosis is basically the medical name for overactive sweat glands, and is a fairly rare condition that affects about 3% of all humans. It mainly comes in the form of excessive underarm sweating and problems tend to start in late adolescence, while palm and sole sweating often begins earlier, around the age 13 (on average). Untreated, these problems may continue throughout life and for those who do suffer from this condition, life can be very hard.
It can cause embarrassing moments at work, at school even when socializing. Having to carry around a paper towel due to excessive sweating, or a spare shirt/top, in your bag can be a nightmare but underarm sweating should not be taken in silence. If the condition is already affecting your everyday life, it needs a lot of attention, but there are solutions to this condition.
One solution that has proven to be highly successful for many sufferers has been the best selling book – Stop Sweating and Start Living, by Mike Ramsey. In this book, you will find a variety of ways to reduce your seating, using natural exercises and also household items. If you don’t believe me, check it out here for more info.
