    Glossary Sweat

    fluid excreted by skin glands to regulate body temperature

    Sweat, also known as perspiration, is a fluid produced by sweat glands in the skin. It primarily consists of water, salts, and small amounts of other substances. The main function of sweating is to regulate body temperature by releasing heat through evaporation, but it also helps to excrete certain waste products from the body.
