Sweating is a body's way of releasing toxins from the blood and other important organs that are responsible for literally keeping a body internally clean. While there are many factors that bring this on, the most common is exercise. However, sweat stains - removal and prevention of - are among the common clothing mars there is. Sweating is your body's natural way of cooling you down. An AC unit cools down a house by adjusting the temperature. So do you. An excretion of water through the pores is how your body stays safely cool during hot weather or vigorous workout sessions. On the other hand, if you've ever been sick with a fever, you know that you're prone to sweating a lot. This is because you're literally removing toxins from your internal circulatory system. Being nervous can bring out perspiration. Unfortunately, it can oftentimes leave ugly yellow spots on clothing, causing them to look unattractive - and they don't smell very good, either. Usually this occurs mainly in the underarm and neckline area. As far as that goes, the most effective measure to take is simply by preventing excessive perspiration. To begin, trade in stuffy nylon material for breathable, loose and cool clothing. This will keep heat from being trapped within these articles of clothing and causing you to perspire, which can cause spots and even an unattractive odor. To fight its accumulation even farther, use deodorant, which is applied under the arms. It smells good and usually has a gel-like texture. Don't be discouraged if, despite the previous measures, you're still left with ugly spots. Sometimes hard workout sessions or long work hours can't be helped. One simple and effective way to get rid of it is to lay it out flat over the washing machine. Soak the area with Hydrogen Peroxide and let it stay there for about twenty minutes. Wash it off, and the spot should be gone. On the other hand, if this isn't quite enough to remove the stain completely, let it sit for fifteen minutes longer before placing it into a washing machine cycle. Use a strong laundry detergent and add some Hydrogen Peroxide in with the water as well. Take it out, dry it and you shouldn't have any problems having a nice clean piece of cloth again. As they say, "an ounce of prevention equals a pound of cure." Simply anticipating this situation will, for the most part, avoid having to ever deal with removing ugly spots on clothes in the first place. However, if you do get to that point, there's an easy solution for it.
