Heat shock protein

Okay kiddo, imagine your body is like a house that has lots of tiny machines called "proteins." These proteins have specific jobs to help your body work properly. Now, sometimes your body gets really hot, like when you have a fever or exercise a lot. And when that happens, some of the proteins in your body can get damaged or stop working.

That's where "heat shock proteins" come in. They're like little superheroes that protect the other proteins in your body when things get too hot. They swoop in and rescue the damaged or misfolded proteins, and either help them get back to their job or send them off to be recycled.

Just like how your mom might put a seatbelt on you to keep you safe in a car, heat shock proteins keep your proteins safe and ensure your body can keep running smoothly even when things get a little too warm.
