Five things you did not know about perspiration

Perspiration involves about 2.6 million sweat glands with a fluid mainly of water and sodium chloride. There are two gland types eccrine for temperature control and apocrine in armpits and scalp producing fatty acids and proteins that cause stains and odor. Antiperspirants block ducts with aluminum compounds while deodorants kill odor-causing bacteria. Talcum powder and frequent showers are alternatives. Hyperhidrosis is excessive sweating with various causes and Botox can reduce gland activity.
