I've been doing almost 5 miles every day at around 5am, theoretically the coolest part of the day.
Still ringing the sweat out of my shirt by the end of it.
I had to put foil over my hotel windows, otherwise the room overheats around midday.
This place is cursed.

Just stay in the hotel.

If you can't stand the heat then stay out of the kitchen.

Jokes aside - what is your diet like? You maybe be able to make it tolerable by being more selective what and when you eat.

You know this calorie thing ? complete rubbish science. But high caloric foods are likely to cause you to produce more heat and thus make your suffering worse and if you have the habit of drinking lots then you will be sweating lots.

I can't give you a good suggestions on how micromanaging when and what you eat would help exactly, but that would be what I would be studying and experimenting with in my spare time if I was in your predicament. But generally, if you eat less then you should also be cooler. The particular matter you ingested can alter how the body retains or expels heat and fluid in general.

I hope you are not a coffee drinker because oh boy I imagine that would be painful.

Oh and lastly, common misconception is that sun produces heat. It doesn't. Heat is produced through chemical reaction with the sun rays and that relates it back to what your body composition is; what you have ingested. But not much you can learn about that at this point I am afraid. Don't expect even fringe scientists topside to acknowledge this within the next 10 years. But that brings the question: Can you filter sunlight so your body won't produce heat?
"teh science" is at least aware that particular shades can block the heat from the sun, but they frame it in the sense that Sun is radiating heat rather than it being a particular frequency range of radiation which causes a reaction that creates heat.

There may be other solutions mainstream never even thought of. Someone could meditate on that.

Because you are genetically engineered to be there.

Non-Black what?
I am confused about that your post is about.

Scientists already acknowledge this. It's called radiation. It's the difference between how a microwave cooks food and how an oven cooks food.

Clothes makes a huge difference, no matter where you go. You'd be surprised how much cooler you feel in the heat and humidity simply be switching to light colors rather than dark, or fabrics like linen instead of cotton.

i went to hawaii once (against my will) and it was so hot and humid i wanted to die.
(honestly anything over 70f/21c is enough to kill me)

I'm not Black, not exactly White either, but it has much more to do with acclimation and your body type. Thin people do much better in the heat than fat or even muscular people.

Also, you're not supposed to do heavy physical work in mid-day in these countries. That's why Mediterannean and Latin American workers stereotypically sleep in the shade at noon.

That reminds me of when I lived in Phoenix, AZ. You could go out during the time where the cities would be busiest anywhere else, but then, the streets are mostly empty. It's once the sun starts to go down that everyone goes out to do things.

Imagine it being 105 degrees f and humid. This is what hell must feel like.

The Sun emits energy (radiation). That energy is absorbed by objects (including your body), and that causes them to heat up. That’s it. There's no special meditations to be had over it. Its basic physics.

Yes, the sun produces heat. It's a thermonuclear reactor. Inside, nuclear fusion releases massive amounts of energy, producing both heat and light.

On Earth, there’s no special “chemical reaction” between sunlight and your body that causes heat. It’s just absorption of radiation, mostly in the infrared and visible spectrum, which raises the temperature of your skin or clothes tge sane way it does with concrete, or your car.

What you eat makes a difference too.

Big meals with lots of meat and fat kicks up metabolism.

Wear a hat. If you have a backpack, sling it on one of your shoulders so the heat radiating out of your body isn't trapped between your back and backpack. Wear loose clothing.
