I sweat a lot through my hands and feet. Also, I sweat more when I'm sleeping. Is this something that I should look into? I've done this all of my life. I'm a 30 year old male.

Usually it means you may have a lot more sweat glands than the average dude but truly only a doctor would know for sure.
From experience would sugest you swap blankets for sheets, also try aiming a fan at your face while you sleep. Also rethink your diet. If you drink a lot of soda, even diet, especially diet, you are consuming a lot of salts, Excess sweting is the way the body gets rid of impurities; Good Luck .....

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sweat
"Sweating (also called perspiration or sometimes transpiration) is the loss of a watery fluid, consisting mainly of sodium chloride (commonly known as salt) and urea in solution, that is secreted by the sweat glands in the skin of mammals. Sweat also consists of the chemicals or odorants 2-methylphenol (o-cresol) and 4-methylphenol (p-cresol).

In humans, sweating is primarily a means of temperature regulation. Evaporation of sweat from the skin surface has a cooling effect due to the latent heat of evaporation of water. Hence, in hot weather, or when the individual's muscles heat up due to exertion, more sweat is produced. Sweating is increased by nervousness and nausea and decreased by cold. Animals with few sweat glands, such as dogs, accomplish similar temperature regulation results by panting, which evaporates water from the moist lining of the oral cavity and pharynx. Primates and horses have sweat glands in their skin, similar to humans.

In homeopathy there is silicea (30) and calc.carb (30). Take both of these medicines 3 pills each one before food and one after food three times a day for a week and your problem would be solved.

I don't think so...I had a roomie in the guard that did that...he didn't seem concerned...there are treatments if it makes you feel uncomfortable. Especially hands, no one likes a clammy handshake.
