I WONDER - Why Do We Sweat?

Sweat glands are distributed throughout the body and help regulate temperature. When the body gets too warm, it signals the skin to produce sweat, which forms a moisture layer that cools down, thus cooling the skin and body. This process explains why we feel cold after stopping physical activity.
