Lately I can't stand being in the sun for long. I get way over heated and sweat badly. Am I lacking a specific vitamin? Other than drink more water what can I do? I need help, I am a wildland firefighter, and my career will depend on this!!

Have your diet contain mostly nonfat items, like bread, fruits, vegetables, juices and the like. Stay away from meats & cheeses , and so forth.
The Eskimos eat a lot of meat and fat.
Near the equator. the diet is fruit and vegetable based.
Good luck
Hope

Have you seen a doctor? I sweat a lot too, mainly my face, which is so attractive, but I've lost some weight, started eating smaller portions of food, and I drink water all day...and I can actually stand being out in the sun- I mean I couldn't lay out AT ALL...I used to die. If I was anywhere near water, I was in- as much as possible. Anyway, I seem to be a bit better now. If you find a better (which I'm sure you will) solution, PLEASE e-mail me too!! Good luck!

You may be mildly dehydrated or low in sodium.
Nothing wrong with sweating as long as you replace the fluids and minerals lost.
I am guessing when you say *over-heated*, you mean weak from the heat. You may have a blood sugar issue. Diabetics have to be careful not to become dehydrated as it majorly affects levels in the blood.
Have a fasting glucose test run and take a look at your overall fitness. Check your mineral levels and water intake.
Good luck!

Many, many people make the mistake when they are very hot, they drink cold water. The trick is to drink something warm and keep the inside warm like the outside. It is supposed to be the same in winter, drink cold drinks, but I have never tried that one. I do drink a lot of hot tea during the hot summer and have little trouble with sweating or overheating............... also, take some extra salt.............

Fitness. Try your local General Nutrition Center (GNC) they should have some kind of suplement that might help you out.
