Dear Roopashree,
I am an excessively sweaty person and it is embarrassing.
Any kind of the smallest exertion and I am sweating.
Once I cook a meal, I have to have a bath and change my clothes.
I always have to have a towel/hanky around to wipe my sweat.
When I am out, I am always sweating.
My family is like this too.
I have no health issues.
How can I solve this problem and sweat less?
Kavita
While sweating is a good phenomenon as it releases toxins from your body and allows your skin to breathe, excessive sweating could be an indicator of Pitta imbalance.
You can verify the same by visiting an Ayurveda practitioner, Kavita.
It could also be triggered by stress or anxiety, therefore regular exercises and pranayams like Anulom Vilom are advisable.
As far as your diet is concerned, avoid excessive fatty foods and consume a balanced diet with more fresh fruits and vegetables than fried and spicy meals.
Another good remedy is chandan lep (sandalwood paste) that you can make at home using the chandan stick.
Apply it on your forehead to balance the pitta element and bring calmness to the mind.

As I have said in my earlier column, sweating is a good phenomenon as it releases toxins from your body and allows your skin to breathe.
Since you don’t have any other issues, you can visit an Ayurveda practitioner to check if there is any Pitta imbalance.
Other triggers could be stress or anxiety, therefore regular exercises and pranayams like Anulom Vilom are advisable.
Regarding your travel diet, some simple steps like the ones given below can ensure you don’t end up eating a lot of outside food.
Even if you are out for two-three days, try carrying at least one day’s meal with you.
Also, nuts are a good option to have with you for munching.
Lastly, opt for fresh fruits and veggies (not pre-cut) or a pack of curd. Be mindful, avoid spicy and fried food.
