Children often overlook the necessity for resting and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is critical to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
The primary way humans combat excessive warmth is by perspiring, letting sweat evaporate and cool the body. A higher relative humidity affects normal body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, subsequently lowering the rate at which the body cools and increasing the perception of heat. When the body is unable to balance heat gain, its temperature elevates, which may induce thermal illnesses.
