Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Children frequently underestimate the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is vital to stay hydrated, particularly during lengthy physical exercises.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat.

Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.
