No sweat glands and physical exercise
I’m not sure if I should ask a doctor this or a nutritionist or a trainer, but, my question is, I heard that to loose weight by exercise you need to sweat more... but if you can’t physically sweat and have disfunctional sweat glands, would you still be able to loose weight by exercise?

Hi Practo user,
You seems to be suffering from hypohidrosis, where person suffers from no sweating or negligible sweating.
Sweating mechanism helps in cooling our body, if this mechanism not working properly, person can suffer from heat stroke which is an emergency situation.
So I will suggest you not to indulge in sternous physical activity . Focus on dietary changes to reduce your weight. Incorporate yogic practices to reduce weight.
For further queries , paid consultation for our lifestyle modification programme, homoeopathic treatment, Diet modification programme connect directly through Practo consultation.

Yes , you will still be able to loose weight without functioning of sweat gland .You need to take high fiber low fat diet followed by detox diet. Drink lot of water everyday. Take small and frequent meals at regular intervals of 2-3 hrs. Avoid outside food completely. Do crunches and pushups daily to reduce belly fat. Ask me directly for customized diet plan for you.
