Abstract: Feet and pedal portions of the human body are efficaciously conditioned against, and to circumvent and at least substantially preclude or alleviate, the discomfort and distress of offensive and frequently intolerable or at least disagreeable (including, without limitation thereto, the odiferous aspects thereof) sweating and perspiration by a particularized and carefully confined treatment with critically-concentrated aqueous solution(s) of formaldehyde (which, chemically, is CH.sub.2 O); consequentially followed by a uniquely-sensitive drying procedure to attain satisfactory, longeval cure or remedy of and relief and respite from possible sweaty conditions and circumstances and resultants thereof.
