Thirst is a late-stage symptom of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, particularly during extended physical activities, is crucial.
Normally, the human body cools itself through perspiration, which removes excessive heat by evaporating sweat.

Rising body temperatures resulting from an imbalance in heat absorption can lead to potential thermal issues.
