In Context
- "Some dieticians^([sic]) and health care providers may claim meat sweats has to do with something called the thermic effect of food, in which eating large amounts of protein causes your body temperature to increase, thus making your body sweat to cool you down. However, others will counter how even eating pounds of food would only slightly raise body temperature, but not enough to cause excessive sweating."
