There are several options available to help control perspiration. One option is using deodorant. Deodorants reduce body odor but do not prevent perspiration. They conceal the odor with a pleasing scent and lessen the interaction between the bacteria and the sweat glands. here is a funny video from utube:
Another option is an antiperspirant (but some claim this might have cancer causing effects due to the blockage of sweat), which reduces the amount of sweating by temporarily shrinking the sweat glands. As a result the sweat is prevented to flow freely from the glands, Antiperspirants can only limit mild to moderate perspiration. If you do not want to use deodorants or antiperspirants, you can use bacterial soap.
