How To Stop Sweaty Hands

For many, a quick spray of deodorant or wipe all over is enough to fix sweaty hands. But for others, relief seems impossible and consistently sweaty hands can cause great emotional and physical distress. Read on to discover our top five tips on how to get rid of sweaty hands.

5 TIPS TO GET RID OF SWEATY HANDS

Experiment with these five simple and practical ways to stop sweaty hands:

1. PRACTICE CONSCIOUS DE-STRESSING TECHNIQUES

Consider meditation and yoga as a way of managing stress and anxiety.

Avoiding anxious and uncomfortable situations by spraying copious amounts of body spray is not always going to work, instead, you can try to focus on alleviating the stress that comes along with it in a healthy manner. There are even courses in public speaking and business dealings which can help you cope and excel in stressful situations.

2. AVOID STRESS SWEATING

Feeling stressed can make you sweat more but if you’re already sweating, that in itself can cause you to feel stressed and anxious. Next time, try NIVEA's Fresh Natural Deodorant Roll-on made for women, the best and quickest way to restore your confidence when your body starts to sweat. It can help avoid discomfort or further stress when you’re faced with something difficult.

3. KEEP YOUR HANDS CLEAN

Wash your hands regularly to remove odours and keep them fresh. Try not to use soap too often, though – it can dry out your skin and make your hands sweat more.

4. KEEP SOME TALC HANDY

If your sweaty palms are making holding things tricky give them a light dusting of talcum or baby powder. This will help with your grip and keep your hands drier for longer.

5. EAT THE RIGHT FOODS

A good start is to try and remove highly processed foods and refined sugars from your diet. These types of foods take a lot of effort for your body to digest and cause it to generate much more heat than normal. Switch to whole grains, and if you need a sugar fix, snack on some naturally sweet fruit.

Spicy foods, peppers, and chillies will naturally make you heat up, too. Look for calcium-rich foods like yoghurt to cool your body down. Calcium acts as a natural temperature regulator for the body, as does mint and peppermint.

Also, don’t forget to drink plenty of water. When your body is hydrated, it’s much easier for it to stay cool.

Some general tips to keep your body from overheating and sweating would be to wear comfortable, loose clothing that allows air to freely pass through. Along with that, opting for a gentle and caring body spray like NIVEA's Fresh Natural Deodorant Roll-on that offers you day-long protection from sweat and odour.
