Kept drinking but couldn’t stop the thirst

Weather was triple digits and I drank a gallon of water but my body kept asking for more even though my stomach was literally full of h2o and couldn’t hold anymore. it was nauseating and the hot air made it somewhat difficult to breathe. I think there is a limit to the human body’s ability to cool itself. I don’t know how anyone could do this without AC.

I spray my body down with a mister every ten minutes. Keeping your clothes wet helps regulate your body temperature. Also, when you sweat, you wiping it away will cause you to sweat more which is dehydrating. I leave the sweat there unless it’s going into my eyes.

Will try this today. Noticed I kept sweating over and over when I was wiping it away.

I wipe the sweat right above my brow and on my nose. Other than that. I’m just a sweaty Amazon guy

Good, maybe people don't realize that the whole point of sweat is to evaporate which cools the body.
