Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - hence, it is crucial to stay hydrated, especially during ongoing physical activities.
The process of perspiration is vital for the human body to get rid of excess warmth by allowing sweat to evaporate. Increased relative humidity interferes with body cooling by slowing the rate of evaporation, resulting in a slower body cooling rate and a heightened feeling of heat.
