Heat index values are quite important for children. Young ones generally face higher dangers than adults since they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface area compared totheir small bodies and increased heat production from their activities, the risks are heightened.
Perspiring is a crucial mechanism for the human body, allowing it to release excessive warmth through evaporating sweat. Under conditions of high temperature and humidity (enhanced heat index), sweat production is compromised, exacerbating the sensation of warmth. When the body is unable to balance heat gain, its temperature elevates, which may induce thermal illnesses.
