Thirst is an advanced sign of dehydration - thereby highlighting the importance of keeping hydrated, particularly during long physical activities.
Perspiration, followed by sweat evaporation, is the human body's chief method to maintain a balanced temperature. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.
