    GlossaryHeat Stress

    body's inability to cool down, causing increased core temperature

    Heat stress, also known as thermal stress, occurs when the body is unable to cool itself sufficiently, leading to an increase in core temperature. This can result from high environmental temperatures, strenuous physical activity, or inadequate hydration. In severe cases, heat stress can lead to heat-related illnesses such as heat exhaustion or heat stroke, which can be life-threatening if not managed promptly.
