let’s talk about how to deal with excessive sweating not just in your hands but your whole body the medical term for this is called hyperhidrosis you have the acronym gland okay you have another gland called the apocrine gland and then you have the third one which is sebaceous gland okay so i’m going to attempt to make this very very simple okay just to really kind of navigate through it in a simple way because there’s a bit of complexity now this gland responds with exercise uh nervousness emotional stress uh hot weather and then the april crinkland um responds to emotional stress fear pain and the sebaceous gland’s a little bit different because it’s releasing kind of this little bit of an oil called sebum for lubrication these two glands are releasing salt and other electrolytes so these two glands are primarily for cooling okay so causing this sweating reaction and then the evaporation of the liquid creating a cooling sensation so these two are really involved with temperature regulation and it’s really the over stimulation of this gland right here which is responsible for this excess sweating and it’s usually triggered by some stress usually emotion and so the body’s tolerance of stress okay is just lowered little things will trigger it now you may not feel stressed but apparently your body has a very low threshold for stress now what’s really really bizarre to me is that the treatment that they do on some of these cases is surgical it’s called the thoracic sympathectomy okay they literally remove part of your sympathetic nervous system so in sweden this is banned because of the side effects okay i mean removing part of your nervous system is is a bit invasive or they use medications to inhibit uh these neurotransmitter enzymes okay i’m gonna try to again try to keep this real simple the temperature regulation and your your bodies in the brain you can call it the thermostat okay it’s like in the hypothalamus so it’s very similar to what i have in my studio right now i have the controls and there’s a little sensor over there that detects a certain temperature of 70 degrees so anything that goes too high or too low and that mechanism will either kick in or cool it down or raise the temperature so there’s a little sensor or receptor that picks up temperature that’s controlling the whole thing same thing in the brain there’s a receptor here that picks up temperature and either turns things off or turns things on so we have this feedback thermostat mechanism going on between your hypothalamus and your skin okay so that’s as deep as i’m going to get with that so these medications work by kind of completing this communication and turning off this mechanism so it doesn’t keep going on and on and on and so surgically they’re removing part of the sympathetic nervous system but the medications work on both the sympathetic and the parasympathetic nervous system so really they’re attempting to kind of balance out this autonomic nervous system but they do target the autonomic nervous system so the question is is there something natural is there something herbal that can be done that mimics this without the side effects because these medications always have side effects and the answer is yes there is okay and the very specific uh phytonutrient that will mimic this medication is called rosemarinic acid which happens to be in rosemary and sage okay so both of these plants have this phytonutrient that can actually help mimic this medication now the next thing that i found related to this topic is vitamin b1 thymine okay there’s one side effect from a severe b1 deficiency and that severe b1 deficiency okay if you want to know the name it’s called wernicke corsicoff that is part of beriberi which is a b1 deficiency one of the side effects of the syndrome is excessive sweating it just so happens thymine is involved heavily in the autonomic nervous system okay it’s essential for the autonomic nervous system to work and if you’re deficient in b1 you can have all sorts of problems with the autonomic nervous system but excessive sweating is one so anytime you have a problem with the sympathetic nervous system which is the flight or fight or even the the parasympathetic you want to use vitamin b1 in sufficient amounts and as an interesting coincidence the herb sage is very rich in vitamin b1 and vitamin b1 as far as what it does in the brain is it works on the limbic system which is intimately involved with your emotions okay so it’s kind of a relay switch involved in emotion and emotional stress and the more emotional stress that a person has the less b1 they’re going to have because you the requirement for b1 goes up when you experience stress and taking b1 helps to reduce stress but all you need to know right now it’s involved in the limbic system so there are two things i’m going to recommend okay number one if you have this condition excessive sweating okay take this either in the form of rosemary or sage okay and sufficient b1 i would highly recommend finding a natural b1 not this the typical synthetic whatever it says on the directions i would take like four times the amount to see if that can help you all right i hope i explained this in a very simple way i didn’t want to get too far into the woods but the next most interesting video you should watch is on vitamin b1 and i put that video up right here check it out
