Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Youngsters often neglect the necessity for rest and hydration. Thirst is a sign of advancing dehydration - thus the importance of maintaining hydration, specifically during long-lasting physical activities.
To offset high temperatures, the human body releases sweat which, upon evaporation, cools it down.
