Brilio.net - Hot weather often triggers the body to sweat, a natural response that aims to lower body temperature. Sweat is actually a fluid that consists mostly of water, with a little salt, fat, and protein. Under normal conditions, sweat is odorless. However, when hot weather increases sweat production, there are several factors that can cause an unpleasant odor.
When the ambient temperature increases, the body responds by increasing the production of sweat through eccrine and apocrine sweat glands. Eccrine glands are located throughout the body and produce sweat that is mostly composed of water and salt. The primary function of these glands is to cool the body when the temperature increases. However, apocrine glands, which are found in certain areas such as the armpits and groin, produce a thicker sweat that is high in protein and lipids.
It is the sweat from the apocrine glands that interacts with natural bacteria on the skin, causing the formation of compounds that have an unpleasant odor. Bacteria on the skin's surface break down the components in apocrine sweat, producing acids and ammonia, which are often the main cause of body odor.
You can anticipate the heat, especially in the head area using a hat . But if you wear a hat for too long, your head will continue to sweat. A head covered by a hat will also feel hot.
Well, now you don't need to worry anymore when you're hot outside. There's one trick you can practice, which is to use just 1 food ingredient. The method was shown by Instagram user @foxsports979.
As reported by BrilioFood from Instagram @foxsports979 on Sunday (18/8), one of the cooking ingredients used is cabbage . The method is to peel or remove the first sheet of cabbage. Whether you want one sheet or two, you can adjust it to your needs.

It appears in the video upload, the netizen only relies on a piece of cabbage. Without washing it, he immediately puts the cabbage sheet into his hat.

After that, the hat is used directly as usual. According to him, adding or inserting cabbage sheets into the hat is effective in reducing the hot temperature felt on the head.
Instagran relief. Now people are no longer worried if its going to smell. Well you can't control that but I think they're right (It's instantly cold. Now people don't have to worry about smelling because of sweat and heat. Although it can't be controlled, I know their method is effective), explained the video owner.
This was also explained by a netizen in the comments column of the video.

In Japan, I have seen mom's putting cabbages on their children's heads when they have fever. It actually cools their heads down.
