Abstract

Sweating, a physiological process often associated with discomfort, plays a crucial role in regulating body temperature and maintaining overall health. This natural cooling mechanism helps the body dissipate excess heat during physical exertion, heat exposure, and emotional stress. In this article, we delve into the science behind sweating, its benefits, factors affecting sweat production, and potential health implications.
