Thirst is a delayed symptom of dehydration - hence, it is vital to maintain hydration, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. In conditions of both high temperature and humidity (a high heat index), sweating is limited and the perception of heat is enhanced. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.
