Baking Soda Cures for Sweating

Author: Jason Ellis

There are TONS of baking soda cures out there. Baking soda is used for everything. It puts out fires, it cleans your teeth, it cleans dishes, it cleans clothes, it gets rid of smells and yes… it even discourages sweating!

Here's my quick, disclaimer for those of you out there with severe hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating). Baking soda is not some magical cure-all. However, when used properly, you'll TOTALLY feel a difference. I'm going to give you a couple of baking soda cures for sweating that you'll definitely find useful.

First, let me just really quickly explain why baking soda helps eliminate sweating so effectively…

WHY IT WORKS - Baking soda is an alkaline and your body's sweat is an acid. When the two combine, gas is formed, causing the instant evaporation of the sweat.

So, it's not that baking soda blocks the sweat from escaping your pores. Instead, it conditions your skin to quickly dry up as soon as the sweating begins.

When you apply the baking soda cures for sweating below, it's the residue of the baking soda on the skin that conditions the dryness. The treatments work way better if you apply them consecutively for days on end so be consistent about it.

Baking Soda for Hand Sweating:
You'll want to fill up a big bowl or two separate aluminum pie pans with warm/hot water and equal parts baking soda. The solution should be very cloudy. The baking soda will gather at the bottom, so be sure to mix it up very thoroughly.
Soak your hands for 25 minutes in the solution. It's important that the water is warm or hot so your pores really open up. You want the baking soda to penetrate your skin. During that time, intermittenly grab the clumps of baking soda at the bottom of the pan or bowl and rub your hands together to really saturate them in the solution.
After the 25 minutes are up, your hands will be a little pruney - this is totally normal. Just dry them off with a towel. Don't wash them off with soap and water if possible. You want to retain the residue of baking soda on your skin. Some people say they have a light powerdy look to the skin after drying them off. The more residue of the solution, the better your results will be.

Here's what you should expect from the treatment above…

Your hands will definitely feel dry the first 30 minutes after treatment and results should last at least a couple of hours following. If you use this remedy consecutively for 5 days straight, the results can last up to 5 or 6 hours on end.

It's normal for the skin to feel a tiny bit rubbery directly after treatment. You'll see what I mean when you try it. Anyway, the goal is to keep them dry, so I'm sure that small side effect won't bother you.

This cure for hand sweating works best for people with less severe cases of hyperhidrosis although EVERYONE will find some benefit.

If you're about to go on a date or have an intimate night planned with your significant other, this treatment makes an awesome quick fix.

This next treatment I recommend for ANYONE. It's well worth trying out.

Baking soda is well known for its odor eliminating effects. That's because it neutralizes acids and odor causing bacteria in the body. This makes it a perfect bath additive to really give you a wonderful, fresh and dry feeling right out of the tub.

Let me tell you, I never used to take baths in my adult life. I was always a shower kinda guy. Besides, who has the time for a bath?

Well, speaking from a very positive experience using the following treatment, you NEED to make time for a "Baking Soda Bath Blast" at least once a week.

Since implementing this tactic, my overall body sweating haulted drastically.

Have you ever taken a shower and started sweating the moment you got out and began drying off? It's terribly frustrating, right?

Well, you'll never have that happen to you with a "Baking Soda Bath Blast". The treatment will keep you super dry from the moment you step out of the tub. I love it! Plus, baths are just a relaxing experience overall. Here's how it goes…

The Baking Soda Bath Blast:


This treatment works best if you schedule it AFTER a shower. This way you get clean with soap and water first, then you'll just soak your already clean body in the baking soda solution without needing to wash it off with soap. 

While you're in the shower, use a loofah (dry sponge) to exfoliate your skin. Exfoliate your hands, feet, armpits or anywhere else you sweat profusely from. You're going to do this to allow the baking soda to penetrate your pores more efficiently. Next, you'll be taking the bath. 

Fill a bath with warm water (not exceptionally hot) and add 1/2 - 1 cup of baking soda to the tub.
Soak for 15 - 20 minutes and make sure to grab any clumps of baking soda gathered at the bottom of the tub, rubbing it into your armpits, hands, feet, chest or back.

Give these two treatments a fair shot. That means at least 5 consecutive days of trying this out. You'll body will need to acclimate itself to the baking soda before feeling the best results.

2 Essential Oils to Stop Excessive Hand Sweating

Author: Jason Ellis

Excessive hand sweating can be extremely debilitating socially. I remember going on job interviews and looking up at the potential employer after that first sloppy, wet handshake, thinking, “This interview is already over.”

The problem is hard to understand for people who don’t personally suffer from it. They think you’re always nervous or even place judgments on your hygiene. There’s no doubt, it’s a cruel world out there if you’ve got sweaty hands.

More than likely you suffer from some degree of palmer hyperhidrosis – a condition where hyperactivity in your Sympathetic Nervous System causes sweat glands to fire off perspiration in continuous bursts, no matter what temperature you’re exposed to.

Here you’ll be learning about two very powerful, natural oils that will condition your hands to stay dry for very long amounts of time using gentle astringent properties. Let’s get your excessive hand sweating under control, shall we?

Geranium Oil

Geranium Oil is extracted from the plant called pelargonium odorantissimum, which belongs to the Geraniaceae family. You can buy it at most health food stores in liquid form. Simply apply a thin layer to your palms and let it air dry. As the oil soaks into your pores, it will immediately go to work, drying your skin and giving your hands a pleasant, fresh smell.

Cypress Oil

Calming and cooling, this oil from the Mediterranean cypress tree is valued for its refreshing and astringent effects. The essential oil is steam distilled from the leaves, twigs and cones of the evergreen tree. You’ll feel the effects instantaneously as perspiration quickly evaporates from your palms AND you feel more relaxed overall. That’s because Cypress Oil has a direct effect on your nervous system. It stimulates calm, serene emotions. The alcohol (10%) in Cypress oil contributes to its drying effect as well.

Try these to solutions out and see if they stop your hand sweating as effectively as they did mine.
