Thirst is a delayed indication of dehydration - keeping hydrated, particularly in prolonged physical activity, is crucial.
When temperatures rise, the human body turns to perspiration, using the cooling power of evaporating sweat.

Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.
