Normally when your body temperature increases, your hormones naturally release sweat in order to cool the body; however in certain cases it gets hyperactive and leads to constant sweating. A few changes in your diet and lifestyle clubbed with natural remedies will help to get rid of the condition without the tension of any side effects.
