Sport and Sweat. Cant have one without the other; right! Once, people who sweated heavily needed a prescription to get help. Now, clinical strength deodorants are available from supermarket and pharmacy shelves. At triple the price of the ordinary brands; are they worth it? Anti-perspirants work by forming plugs in the sweat ducts just below the skins surface; and they usually stay in place for about 24hrs (although in a hot day in Qld, Id say thats a little optimistic). Clinical protection brands boast twice that time, by increasing the active ingredients and also directing night time application when the sweat glands are least active (unless youre playing night sport). Research shows that new clinical protection brands can be very effective, provide more protection against wetness than regular antiperspirants and cause less irritation than heavy prescription products. If youre keen on sport, but are having trouble managing the sweat-effects; then perhaps update your deodorant to a brand marked Clinical Protection. Both Dove and Rexona provide these; and no doubt other brands do too. Have a little label browse.
