Okay. I new to this post but I do have a theory. Years ago, I had a serious problem with sticky armpits and itchy skin. I went to a dermatologist who gave me a patch test to check for allergies. Turned out I was positive for sodium benzoate. It's a preservative used in A LOT of foods and products. As soon as I started looking at food labels before consuming them, it went away. I was also told to avoid acidic foods such as vinegar and to consume lots of water. He said when you drink water, your skin is always last to get it. So, if you drink 8oz of water and the rest of your body organs us it all up before it's your skins turn, sorry Charlie. I hope this post helps at least one of you.
