    Coffee's Effect on Sweating in Hot Weather

    Dr. Darja Haykina, an endocrinologist and nutritionist, explained why coffee consumption can lead to increased sweating even on hot days. Caffeine stimulates the central nervous system, speeds up heart rate, and activates blood circulation, causing the body to produce more heat. This triggers a natural cooling mechanism, resulting in more sweating. Additionally, caffeine affects the hormonal background, increasing adrenaline levels, which can exacerbate the feeling of overheating. Coffee also has a diuretic effect, potentially increasing the risk of dehydration if not properly hydrated.

Farmers and pro-Kannada activists in Karnataka have been protesting against the decision, with some even staging semi-nude protests and tearing posters of Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Joseph Vijay.
