Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is critical to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
One of the main methods the human body employs to cool down is by perspiring, as this process allows sweat to evaporate and remove excess heat. 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. Elevated heat gain compared to the body's release capability poses risks of dehydration and potential overheating.
