It doesn’t seem like a huge difference to me but even a 1 degree increase of body temp can make you so tired and have fever. Why is that?

Your body is like a finely tuned machine, and it operates best within a narrow temperature range. Even a small increase in body temperature can disrupt the balance of enzymes and chemical reactions that keep you healthy. When your body detects a higher temperature, it often responds with symptoms like fatigue and fever as a way to fight off infections and help you recover. So, even a 1-2 degree increase can have a noticeable impact on how you feel.
