<p>I asked a doctor about how heatstroke works, and he explained that the body is constantly generating heat, and constantly dispelling heat. Hence, the process of death from heatstroke cannot simply begin when the temperature rises above 98.6. Rather, heatstroke begins when the body exhibits dangerously abnormal symptoms. Similarly, the process of starvation does not begin as soon as one stops eating. It begins when the body begins to exhibit abnormal symptoms, such as breaking down muscle tissue for energy.</p> <p>ETM</p>
