Cold thermogenesis is the best kept health secret ever. Central Arizona finally got cold enough for my tub to drop down to my target temperature range.
My target temperature was (50-55 oF).
Everything was ideal for a half-hour soak at 51 oF. And a beautiful sunny day for warming up aferwards.
Followed it up by getting the ol’ arterioles closer to my skin – i.e. red splotches appearing as I sat in the sunshine for an hour or so. The better to get more sunshine into my blood plasma. Got some good vitamin D3 sulfate synthesis. Also boosted my best antiviral defense with UVC light from plasma deuterium. (The novel coronavirus doesn’t stand a chance against UVC light!)
And that’s not to mention the whole raft of other goodies from cold adaptation.
Looking forward to a nice chilly winter and lots more icy dips this year.

Was It Fun?
To be honest – no, it wasn’t. I think the whole neighborhood heard my shriek as I slid into the tub.
Shocking, yes.
Stimulating, yes.
Gonna keep doing it? Absolutely!
All the best in natural health,

Your so old school…. straight to the point and true… and I love and appreciate your expertise and humor. Dad used to say “Take a shitake or get off the pot” which meant no beating the bush. Lived in the Canal Zone all of the 50’s and 60’s till I was drafted 1970. and the rest is history. Doctors were family back then and never were esoteric about the details. You remind me of them. Never was afraid of knowing the facts. Always advised to play outdoors in the sun and stay away from the sandbox. Got so many shots to survive all the visiting virus’s and while even in the army heading towards VN, I was saturated. Perhaps I have an immunity to a bunch of things because of it. Anyway, great read.

Wow, thanks, Rolie. Great to hear from a kindred spirit. I love your dad’s quote, too. I might just use it myself!
Cheers,
