The Olympic Debate: What to do if You Can’t Shake Hands?
I recently read an article about the upcoming Summer Olympics. It said that British athletes have been advised not to shake hands with other players or dignitaries at the London Olympic Games for fear that they will pick up an illness and lose the opportunity to win a medal in the games.
How to Get Rid of Age Spots on Hands
Age spots, commonly referred to as liver spots, on the backs of your hands can cause you to keep your hands in your pockets instead of reaching out to shake hands with new-found friends or business acquaintances. Caused by an overexposure to the sun, the pigmentation turns odd-shaped areas of skin to varying shades of brown. Using a good sunscreen can reduce the risk of developing age spots on the hands. Once they appear, however, there, are also several things you can do to reduce their appearance or make them disappear.
How to Not Have Sweaty Hands
Sweaty hands can present a big problem, especially when you are in a situation where you must shake hands with people.

The medical name for overly sweaty hands is palmar hyperhidrosis. Fortunately, you can treat sweaty hands with both home remedies and medical solutions. It may require constant effort, but you’ll be rid of your embarrassment.
How to Get Pen Ink Off of Hands
If you have ever used a fountain pen or experienced the explosion of a ball point pen, you know the frustration of ink stains on your hands. As with Shakespeare’s Lady MacBeth, you may finding yourself wrestling with a darned stain all over your hands. And like Lady MacBeth, you may find scrubbing to be of no avail. Unlike Lady MacBeth, your cure is just one more washing away. You don’t have to live with this stain forever.
How to Stop Sweaty Hands Naturally
Sweaty, clammy hands give off the wrong message. Instead of saying “Hi, I’m confident. I know what I want,” your slimy hand is telling the fellow hand shaker that you are nervous, shy, scared or worse–have bad hygiene. Get a handle on this problem before you meet your child’s next teacher or go on your next interview. Don’t let anyone form her first impression of you with a sloppy, greasy embrace. The next time you shake hands with someone, show them just how poised you are.
