Sarah Everts is fascinated by sweat.
The science journalist has been studying the subject since moving to Berlin in 2006, where she questioned the popularity of saunas.
What sweat is, why our bodies do it and how there is a market for artificial sweat are all subjects Everts looks at in her 2021 book The Joy of Sweat:: The Strange Science of Perspiration.
Everts is the chair in digital science journalism at Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada. Everts talks Kathryn through all the weird and wonderful facts she's learned about sweat.
