Sweaty Feet
Are there any herbal remedies for sweaty feet?The herbalist writes...
Firstly, it is important to buy shoes made from natural material such as leather, and wear sandals as much as possible. Plastic in shoes will make anyone's feet/shoes smell! If your feet sweat excessively, then look at the small article on hyperhydrosis (excessive sweating) and follow the relevant advice.
A footbath with pine needles (1 kilo boiled in 2 litres of water) is a traditional rememdy for over sweaty feet - Artemis don't stock any pine needles at the moment, but you could gather them if you have pine trees nearby. Alternatively you could try witch hazel aromatic water spray over the feet. If your feet are very smelly when they sweat, then try more internal treatment with cleansing remedies such as sage, dandelion and burdock, and ensure that your diet is not overly rich or high in sugar or alcohol.
