1 Black Tea.
Black tea has tannic acid which offers both astringent and antiperspirant properties, which can help in controlling excessive sweating.
Its astringent properties work on constricting the sweat glands that control the flow of sweat to the outer layer of the skin.
While other teas can be use, black tea contains the highest level of tannic acid, and therefore is the most effective.
How to Use.
1 Make a tea by putting 2 black tea bags into 3 cups of just-before-boiling-temperature water.
2 Steep for 10-15 minutes.
3 Dip a clean cotton pad or washcloth into the tea, and dab the tea onto the underarms.
Notes:You can also use this method for both feet and palm sweating by filling a small basin with 4 cups of hot water.
Then put 2 black tea bags into the water,and allow it to steep for at least 10 minutes.
You can now soak either your feet or palms in the water for about 20 minutes when the water cools slightly.
Then repeat regularly for best results.
