How Weather Affects Your Health—And How to Remain Protected

Those Scandinavian winters are magical, but they do plunge into a freeze. Your body is putting a lot of effort into keeping itself warm, not for fun, but because of its health. Let's travel into what warmth means for your well-being and how simple choices, such as good socks, are extremely important.

The Science of Staying Warm

For the body to function effectively, the core temperature has to be kept within a narrow measure. Cold exposure reduces blood flow to the extremities such as the hands and feet, making them more susceptible to injury. This can eventually lead to rigidness, poor circulation, and fatigue.

Risks of Extended Cold Exposure

Long exposure to cold can weaken your immune system, leaving you susceptible to catching colds and flu. Keeping warm is not just a comfortableness issue; it's a matter of health.

Why a Warm Foot Is Important

Generally, the feet are the first to go cold. When the feet are kept warm, so is the whole body; the circulatory system is relieved from pressure. Warm feet also promote sleep, signalling your body that it is bedtime.
