Natural Treatment that Works for Excessive Perspiration
Your condition is called hyperhidrosis and is not considered to be an indication of ill health or any health related issues. However, having said that I can understand how embarrassing and frustrating it must be. There are various home remedies that you can safely try out.

Try out several remedies to find out which one works best for you. Make sure that you use these treatments for at least a week or two before making your decision. Unlike pharmaceutical drugs or cosmetic sprays, these treatments generally take longer to show results.

Drink a cup of tomato juice every morning and try to include a bowl of grapes in your daily diet. This will help to keep cool your body and prevent excess perspiration.
Boil a couple of teabags in a large bowl of water for seven minutes or so. Let it cool and then soak your hands and feet in it. Do this every night if possible as tea contains tannic acid which is absorbed by your skin. Tannic acid has astringent properties which make it a valuable natural antiperspirant.

Sage is probably one of the best cures for excessive sweating and you can either brew a few sage leaves or chew them along with a teaspoon of honey.
