Children often fail to understand the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - hence, it is crucial to stay hydrated, especially during ongoing physical activities.
The primary way humans combat excessive warmth is by perspiring, letting sweat evaporate and cool the body.

Temperature imbalances caused by excessive heat retention can trigger heat-related maladies.
