Title: Quick-Sweat-Stop-Tips?
Post by: dezzy on 01/05/2009 01:41:54

1 - What would would someone suggest to stop EXCESS sweating at that wrong time?

e.g. meetings / presentations / nervous moments...!


2 - How about reducing sweat at times where you would probably expect sweat?

e.g. coming indoors after a walk / after a shower

If the sweating is extreme there are medications, including Botox ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperhidrosis#Medications

Given the appearance of your post Dezzy I suspect you may be trying to sell us a remedy.

Just curious, does adrenaline partly contribute to sweating? Maybe we can reduce sweating by going onto roller coasters repeatedly, so we can be desensitized to stimulants hehehe.  [;D]
