I remember when I was a child, I said in biology class that the normal temperature of people was about 37℃, but because of the epidemic, I found that I had to take my temperature every day.
Why is the temperature of everyone around you less than 37℃?
In the last century, the average body temperature in the world was 37, but few people can reach it now.
According to statistics, since the19th century, the average body temperature of adults has been decreasing continuously, from 37℃ to 36.6℃ in less than 200 years.
It is no exaggeration to say that 37℃ has become history. Nowadays, human body temperature is dropping all over the world.
Be alert!
Hypothermia is not a good thing! !
Hypothermia is not a good thing! The average body temperature of cancer patients is around 35, and cancer cells like low temperature environment best.
As we all know, bats can carry many viruses. For example, rabies virus including COVID-19 may be carried by bats.
How high is the bat's temperature? 40℃!
Studies have shown that when the body temperature drops by 65438 0℃, the immunity will drop by more than 30%.
Every time the body temperature rises by 65438 0℃, the immunity will be improved by 5~6 times. From this point of view, the immunity of bats is probably hundreds of times that of humans-no wonder bats, as mammals, can resist all kinds of viruses, and can carry a lot of viruses without getting sick or getting cancer. .....
So if you see bats in the wild, you'd better stay away from them! I am a walking virus Petri dish!
Why does the body temperature drop?
Immunity will also decrease?
As we all know, body temperature is related to basal metabolic rate. Every time the body temperature rises 1℃, the basal metabolism will increase 13%.
Hypothermia may mean poor blood flow and microcirculation.
Microcirculation is related to immunity.
When the body temperature is high and the blood flow is fast, immune cells can find abnormalities in the body faster and kill pathogens in the cradle.
On the contrary, the basal metabolic rate is low, the body temperature drops, the blood flow rate slows down, and the working efficiency of immune cells becomes low.
In addition, immune cells can not only resist the attacks of external viruses and bacteria, but also monitor cancer cells in the body and kill them in time.
In fact, even healthy people produce about 5000 cancer cells every day.
According to scientists' calculations, if the body temperature drops 1℃ and the immunity drops by 30%, the immune system may miss nearly 1500 cancer cells every day, making them multiply wildly and eventually become tumors.
Why does the body temperature of modern people drop?
1, lack of exercise
Not far from us 50 years ago, people had to do a lot of work every day;
However, with the development of science and technology, people seem to be more and more "lazy" and have less and less muscles-
Less muscle means lower body temperature and lower basal metabolism.
A person with high muscle content is consuming energy even if he does nothing. Modern people's reduced exercise leads to low muscle content.
When basal metabolism declines, energy consumption will decrease and visceral fat will increase, so modern people's stomachs are getting bigger and bigger, and blood lipids are getting higher and higher.
2, the air conditioner is blowing too much!
People have been working and living in air-conditioned rooms for a long time, and the thermoregulatory center of the hypothalamus of the brain has lost the opportunity to receive stimulation. With the passage of time, the thermoregulatory center will no longer be sensitive to external temperature, resulting in hypothermia.
Hypothalamic thermoregulation center
Experts believe that in addition to the decline in muscle mass, the difficulty in sweating caused by air conditioning is also a major reason for the decline in body temperature of modern people.
Therefore, the air conditioner should be blown less!
It's natural to go out in the sun and sweat!
3. Life is full of pressure
In addition, the increasing life pressure of modern people is also related to hypothermia.
You know, under pressure, the human body is in a state of stress, and the body secretes a hormone called cortisol to maintain normal physiological functions.
However, cortisol is a catabolic hormone, which not only decomposes muscles, but also promotes fat storage, giving priority to fat storage in internal organs.
The stress of life leads to long-term excessive secretion of cortisol, which decomposes muscles and stores fat at the same time. When the basal metabolic rate drops again, the body temperature will also drop.
Conclusion: The body temperature decreased by 65438 0℃, and the immunity decreased by more than 30%.
170 years, the body temperature drops by 0.4℃, which means that the human immunity drops, which greatly increases the incidence of virus, bacterial infection and cancer.
Is it our fault? This is worthy of our reflection in today's global virus flooding.
As the saying goes, temperature cures all diseases.
What we can do is to adjust our daily diet.
Strengthen physical exercise and don't abuse air conditioning.
Relax your mind, relieve stress, etc.
Start with every little detail.
Appropriately raise body temperature
Improve body metabolism
Improve body microcirculation!
