  Sweating is a way the body uses to regulate its temperature and as well to remove excessive toxins and dirt from the system.

  The main job of sweat is to allow the body to better regulate its temperature.. However, in situations when it is not hot, it can also happen when one is super nervous. When we’re nervous, we make more stress hormones, which cause body temperature and heart rate to increase, which tells the sweat glands that they need to help cool it down, hence why they make sweat!
