Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
When faced with excessive heat, the human body begins to perspire, utilizing the cooling benefits of sweat evaporation.

When the body's heat gain surpasses its removal capacity, body temperature starts to climb, leading to potential heat-related ailments.
