Does Sweat-Off affect temperature regulation?
No, the body’s temperature regulation remains unaffected by Sweat-Off.
Sweat production is dependent on exertion and temperature:
More stress = more sweat, higher outside temperatures = more sweat.
Evaporative cooling occurs on the surface of the body where sweat escapes. This cools the body. If an antiperspirant is used, this process is switched off in a small, limited area of the body surface. For example, the sweat glands under the armpits only make up around 1 % of the available glands. The body’s ability to adapt is so great that ‘switching off’ a few per cent of the sweat glands does not hinder thermoregulation.
IMPORTANT: For this reason, Sweat-Off is only suitable for use on individual parts of the body and not for use on the entire body!
