Cold hands & feet – discuss causes & remedies
-
Has anyone improved cold hand and feet?
Despite having improved my core temperatures (I'm usually in the 98.6 - 99°F range), my hands and feet become freezing after the smallest drop in room temperature.

Have you tried taking pinches of salt? Adrenalin tends to draw blood away from the peripheral tissues. Could also be endotoxin/serotonin related.

Torso temperature needs to be as close to environment temp as possible. I find that artificially elevating torso temperature (Under covers with sweatshirt on or winter jacket on at 40F) slows down thyroid activities and upon return to "normal" torso temp the body wants to hold the blood in the organs, de-prioritizing blood flow to the limbs.

@Vapid-Bobcat do they turn white? I would add more copper and zinc through oysters and liver

@Vapid-Bobcat Merged your thread with this one

@pilky Protein, salt, thyroid, and progesterone happen to be thermogenic, increasing heat production and stabilizing body temperature at a higher level. Prolactin and estrogen lower the temperature set-point.

@CatlikeLantern Yea they turn white

@Vapid-Bobcat you have raynaud’s then. You need to be oyster and liver maxxing. Throw some selenium and mg in too. While you’re at it buy some niacin with flushing.

@rayjeet Regular use of T3 has also helped me with warmer feet. My girl calls me her personal heater.
