Is sweating a good thing?

What brings on cold sweats?

Also known as diaphoresis, cold sweats are actually caused by our body’s ‘fight or flight’ response, which is designed to protect us in dangerous situations. This kicks in when our bodies are responding to fear, pain, shock, shortness of breath or low blood sugar.
