Thirst is a late-stage symptom of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, particularly during extended physical activities, is crucial.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off.

Overheating and dehydration threats arise when heat gain goes beyond what the body can comfortably shed.
