A Home Remedy to Cure Sweaty Palms

Sweaty palms, or palmar hyperhidrosis, is a condition where the sweat gland's nervous system in the hands is overactive. This condition affects between 1 and 2 percent of people and can impact the lives of those who suffer from it. Fortunately, there are home remedies that help people who suffer from this problem.

Tea Bags

• Tea contains tannic acid that acts as a natural antiperspirant. Boil five tea bags for five minutes in four cups of water and then let the water cool. Once cooled, soak palms for half an hour.

Antiperspirant

• Antiperspirants that contain aluminum chlorohydrate controls and stops the sweating. Deodorants will not work since their purpose is to control odor, not sweat.

Avoid Foods with Iodine

• Foods high in iodine may cause excessive sweating and should be avoided. Foods that are high in iodine include broccoli, onions, turkey, asparagus, liver and beef.
