1. Apple Cider Vinegar
Apple cider vinegar is one of the best home remedies for excessive sweating. Due to its astringent properties, apple cider vinegar can be used externally to control sweating. Also, when taken internally, it helps balance the body’s pH level.
- Wash the area that sweats the most and use a cotton ball to rub some apple cider vinegar on it. Leave it on overnight. The next morning, take a bath or shower and then apply some talcum powder or deodorant.
- Another option is to mix 2 teaspoons each of organic apple cider vinegar and honey in a glass of water. Drink it once daily on an empty stomach to combat excessive sweating.
2. Baking Soda
Baking soda also helps solve the problem of excessive perspiration. It is a natural antiperspirant, which means it can effectively absorb moisture and neutralize body odor, too. Plus, as baking soda is alkaline in nature, it lowers the pH level of the body parts that sweat a lot.
- Mix 1 teaspoon of baking soda with enough water to make a thick paste. Add 3 or 4 drops of an essential oil of your choice. Apply this to your armpits and other parts that sweat a lot. Wash it off after 15 to 20 minutes. Do this a few times a week.
- Alternatively, mix equal amounts of baking soda and cornstarch and store it in a bottle. Dust some of this mixture where you sweat the most. Use it as needed.
Try either of these remedies for several days.
