Our life consists of constant movement. We wake up in the morning, doing exercises, going and going to work, on business, we meet with friends, go in for sports, go out with children. Our life is a constant movement, and movement requires energy, resulting in increased sweating. Sweating is an ordinary companion of people engaged in physical work, and in the summer almost all people suffer from hyperhidrosis, all this is natural and does not require treatment.

People who are overweight, have health problems, feel this problem more sharply - almost any movement (fast walking, climbing stairs, etc.) leads to a strong sweating. Diseases of the stomach, kidneys, heart and blood vessels, the nervous system, can also affect the work of the sebaceous glands. During menopause, women experience malaise mixed with tides, which affects not the best way on the well-being of a woman. Occurrence of a specific odor of sweat may indicate serious health problems, in this case it is recommended to undergo examination, to pass tests if necessary, and if any pathologies are revealed, do not delay with treatment.

Of course, you can remove odors with deodorants, but the real reason will be, the disease will progress and eventually become more difficult to treat.

In a recent study, a group of American scientists came to the conclusion that one of the reasons for sweating is depression, which affects a large number of modern people, this mental disorder is so common that among scientists, depression is called a disease of the 21st century.

Depression or emotional depression is a very complex disease. Often the mere recollection of one's problem, in an instant, returns a person to a depressed mental state, often to get out of this state a person needs the help of specialists, otherwise it can lead to suicide. During depression, a person moves away from others, does not accept the help of relatives, becomes coarse, cruel, closes in himself, ceases to see the pleasures of life, shows no interest, and increased sweating during this period can further affect the condition for the discomfort can stop going out on the street, communicate with others, even more immersed in one's own thoughts and experiences). In this regard, American experts recommend people suffering from increased sweating in the normal state, i.e. Not with a strong heat, intense physical exertion, etc., pay attention to your mental state, consult a psychologist.

Depression develops for various reasons: hormonal disruptions, severe trauma and disability, loss of work, death of a loved one, lack of biogenic amines, and such a condition can cause the absence of sunlight (so most often note such conditions in the fall and winter, and the weather is more often rainy than sunny) and taking certain medications (corticosteroids, benzodiazepines). Often, depressive disorders lead to nightmares, insomnia, problems with falling asleep. Night rest is extremely important for the recovery of the body, any disturbances in sleep are reflected not only in physical (fatigue, lethargy), but also in the mental state of a person. A non-rested nervous system sends certain signals to the brain, resulting in even greater psychological problems, for the treatment of which, in most cases, professional help and medication are needed.

Gymnastics, physical exercises, the ability to relax, switching to positive moments of life, will help improve not only physical, but mental health, also, according to American experts, this will help to cope with excessive sweating. The industry does not stand still, every day preparations are being developed to combat the unpleasant odor and to restore the natural balance of the skin, many are based on medicinal plants that have long been used to combat the unpleasant odor of the body, but if the reason lies in mental problems, then there will be even the best deodorant is powerless.
