Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - it's vital to remain hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
The body's natural response to excessive warmth is perspiration, as it allows for cooling through sweat evaporation.

Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
