Thirst is a late-stage symptom of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, particularly during extended physical activities, is crucial.
The process of perspiration is vital for the human body to get rid of excess warmth by allowing sweat to evaporate.

If heat absorption exceeds the body's cooling ability, body temperature can elevate, resulting in potential thermal illnesses.
