Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Children often overlook the necessity for resting and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is critical to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
Perspiration, which is the evaporation of sweat, is a primary way the human body manages and dispels excessive warmth.
