 Review the [OpenTelemetry Logging SDK][ot_logging_sdk] to learn how to use OpenTelemetry components to collect logs.
 
+When integrating the `AzureMonitorLogExporter`, it's **strongly advised to utilize a named logger** rather
+than the root logger.
+This recommendation stems from the exporter's dependency on `azure-core` for constructing and dispatching requests.
+Since `azure-core` itself uses a Python logger, attaching the handler to the root logger would
+inadvertently capture and export these internal log messages as well.
+This triggers a recursive loop of logging and exporting, leading to an unnecessary proliferation of log data.
+To avoid this, configure a named logger for your application's logging needs or set up your logging handler to filter out logs originating from the SDK library.
