Question Best solution for sweating toilet

Have a serious condensation problem on toilet tank and bowl. Keep recaulking around toilet, and caulk doesn't even get a chance to dry. House is on a slab, which I think may contribute to problem. We are buying a new toilet. I have heard pressure assist ones can prevent condensation. Plumber also said a mixing valve on water line will help. Already tried other things, a drip catcher, fuzzy tank liner. Will the new toilet solve this problem, or should I just get a regular toilet and put the mixing valve on? I know the pressure assist toilets cost more, but it is worth it if it will solve the problem. Anyone had success with these as far as condensation goes?

Too much humidity, try a dehumidifier in the bathroom.

A pressure assist toilet will keep the sweat down at the tank, but if the bowl has a sweat problem also there is nothing to solve that issue.
