Why do we sweat? - John Murnan

There are a number of scenarios that can make us sweat–including exercise, eating spicy foods, and nervousness. But how does this substance suddenly materialize, and what exactly is its purpose? John Murnan explores the science behind sweat.

Hats of to your animation team!! Learning became much easy and interesting when you upload videos. Keep up the good work!

[goldenyouth]

Seriously, Your voice is awesome but the way of animation is the key factor for me which makes it more easy to understand

[vaishnavi]

I have sweat for no reason. Don't think these reasons apply in my case.
Ps- I would really appreciate if you make a video on hyperhydrosis. Not many know about it and it is a rare condition. People like me find it really hard to explain....also it's really embaressing and frustrating condition. If you make a video then atleast some will understand

Short answer: to regulate the body’s tempature.

Learning is so much easier since I started watching your videos. The explanations are so clear and the animations make them more interesting. ♥️

[mariajosedazaovalle]

I know exactly why we sweat but I still find these videos so interesting and yet I still learn something new from them. I love them, thank you so much!

This is Uniquely informative as it targets why and how do we sweat unlike most school lessons that only focus on what and when
