A medical condition of abnormally decreased or absent sweating; the inability to perspire normally.
From Greek 'a-' (not) + 'dia-' (through) + 'phoresis' (a bearing or carrying), literally 'not-carrying-through' sweat, referring to impaired or absent perspiration.
This medical condition is the opposite of hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating)—people with adiaphoresis can't cool down properly through sweat, which is dangerous in heat and shows why our body's 'boring' systems are actually essential for survival.
