Have you been missing out on your personal and professional life due to excessive sweating on your hands? Many people who live normal lives with a healthy system would probably never understand the fuss we go through life with. This is a neurological disorder that is simply a physical inconvenience, but more of a psychological problem and social problems. I am a former sufferer of excessive hand sweating and I will share with you how you should maintain a lifestyle and the methods you should try to stop sweaty palms. Many who have the disorder do not believe that they can find a real cure for sweaty hands, as they have tried many over-the-counter remedies for sweaty hands without success.
Here I emphasize that in order to stop sweaty palms, you must adopt a holistic system of maintaining a healthy lifestyle, controlling your diet and finding the right treatment. And within this equation, there are many pros and cons that you need to consider for best results.
One of the key things to avoid is not consuming caffeine which exists in tea and coffee as they tend to stimulate the sweat glands. Avoid artificially sweetened foods, as they also have a triggering effect on the disorder. The occasional cigarette is normal, but excessive smoking should not be allowed as the nicotine strains to stimulate the condition.
This disorder causes your glands to become hypertensive whenever they come into contact with lotions or creams, and instead of stopping perspiration, the cream tends to cause more. This is also true with medicated or talcum powder. And if you must be on medication due to long-term treatment, you should also talk to your doctor about your disorder, so that if you are given prescriptions, the effects of medications that treat both conditions do not conflict.
Maintaining a healthy lifestyle means eating less red meat and more fresh fruits and vegetables. Drink plenty of water to flush out toxins naturally and keep your system fresh. Maintain an even body temperature at room level, especially in summer where heat can stimulate your glands and nerves. Conscientiously maintain a regular exercise schedule and sweat well. If you are stressed from work, take time to relax your nerves, meditate, practice yoga or Pilates to reduce your anxiety level.
While maintaining a healthy lifestyle gives you the long-term effects of general well-being and prevention of recurrence, you will surely be looking for some remedies that will help stop sweaty palms quickly and effectively. Iontophoresis treatment is one that has been successfully treating this disorder for over 50 years and leaves no side effects you can regret unlike surgery. It is not invasive and therefore totally reversible. The process is simply to soak your hands in separate trays of water and plug in the device. Repeat this 20 minute session for a week daily and you will find dry palms. Making your own iontophoresis treatment device is the most affordable and cost-effective approach, not to mention you can do the process within the comfort and privacy of your own home. In fact, this is my secret cure for sweaty hands.
Now that you have the list of do’s and don’ts and my very personal secret of how I managed to stop sweaty palms, you too can start living life again like me.
