Water's high specific heat capacity helps to maintain body temperature. High specific heat capacity indicates a need for more energy to raise or lower the temperature of water. Sweat is another way that water helps maintain temperature. When sweat evaporates it draws in energy from the surroundings (the air and the body surfaces it is in contact with), effectively lowering the temperature.
