Sweat is the healthy response from our body to cool itself down. Sweat can be caused by:

 

Temperature: Body temperature increases when ambient temperature rises. Sweat evaporation on the skin helps cool our body down.

 

Emotions: Emotional stress increases our heart beats and triggers our body’s production of sweat

 

Food: Ingestion of food increases metabolism and leads to elevation in body temperature. This is also known as Gustatory sweating
