It’s an established fact: COLD SHOWERS (AND BATHS) ARE VERY GOOD FOR YOU, in several ways and for several reasons, and they are completely natural – hot water is after all, a fairly recent development in human history and we quickly got used to it – and now of course just simply take it for granted.

What is happenning?

I could not breathe – I was convinced my lungs had actually frozen in my chest cavity, and I was sure I was gonna have a coronary artery, not to mention what it did to my once-proud penis – the expression”countersunk” very much sprang to mind right then and there as I sprang from the shower-from-hell a great deal faster than I entered it. . ! I had been as warm as toast, feeling completely ‘here’, and as lively and clear-headed as I was ever going to be not bad for a 25 minute shower. . !

That’s when I realised that all of the information I’d read, all of the things that other people had told me was perfectly true – and I was hooked. I had been a big brave boy, I abandoned the hair-dryer alone and just let nature take its’ course. . ! Seriously though, your flow is given a critical kick-start every time. If you’re able to easily and comfortably take the strain of what initially feels like a sub-zero immersion into the depths of the antarctic then it’s possible to adapt to any stress anyone yells at you.

Gardez à l'esprit

The degree of Glutathione in your bloodstream is raised – the complete master detoxifier to your immune system. The excess oxygen supply by an increased breathing rate in addition to a faster heart beat will kick each synapsis and manhood – especially the mind, into a super-accelerated high gear that will last for as long as you want it. Noradrenaline, a compound that plays a huge role in the calming of melancholy, is triggered under a cold shower.

There also have been studies which have confirmed that a general anti-depressive effect is obtained when the brain receives hefty amounts of electric impulse signals as a result of cold-water”jolt”. A British study demonstrated that regular cold showers really increased the flow of disease-fighting white blood cells – routine hot flashes just does not make the grade when it comes to revving-up our greatest bodily defence system.

Conclusion

A cold shower arouses the brown fat (why do you think all those tibetan monks are so lean. . ?) With the result that additional calories are burnt to keep your internals cozy and warm as you go through the onslaught of freezing water – over time, this may cause substantial fat loss. Yup, cold water enhances your skin condition since you won’t ruin the important organic oils your skin should flourish – hot water only destroys them.
