Youngsters frequently overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is an advanced sign of dehydration - thereby highlighting the importance of keeping hydrated, particularly during long physical activities.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. High relative humidity reduces the evaporation rate, resulting in a lower heat removal rate from the body, causing the perception of being overheated. As the body accumulates more heat than it can release, body temperature goes up, increasing the risk of heat-related health issues.
