Causes and contributors of having dry feet vary from long periods of standing, poor fitting shoes, diet, dehydration, dry weather climate, viral, fungus, and bacterial infections, and poor health. It’s interesting to note that not only
do three out of every four Americans suffer from dry feet, but three out of every four Americans also suffer from dehydration on a daily basis (2). Could there be a correlation? It is very likely.
Another factor that is more common than realized is uncontrolled blood sugar. This can affect the nerves in your feet and legs which can cause your feet to not get messages from your brain to sweat. Sweat is what keeps your skin moist and soft. This condition is known as diabetic neuropathy and doesn't just affect diabetics. Root causes of this condition range from autoimmune diseases, genetics and mutations, infections, trauma, vitamin and mineral deficiencies, pressure on the nerves, consumes toxins and alcohol, medications and stress.
