Summary

Heat increases heart rate, effort increases heart rate and both of these contribute to something called cardiac drift, which the body uses to regulate its internal temperature. However, increasing temperatures also increase the rate of quitting. In this podcast, Dr. Rhonda Patrick discusses the benefits of utilizing Palmer cooling, a technique that can not only improve endurance but also protect against serious health risks such as hypothermia, overheating, coma, nerve injury and death.

Body temperature
Summary

The palms, feet and face are able to transfer cold into the body and cool the core body temperature by passing blood from arteries to veins. Insulating these surfaces can help warm up the body quickly, with recommended methods being to wear warm socks and gloves, and to safely warm the face.
