What causes hypothermia

summary

My temperature is always low, and my hands and feet are always cold, especially in winter. I went to the hospital for a physical examination and consulted the doctor. The doctor didn't explain the low temperature of this problem. I really want to know. Now let's share what causes hypothermia.

What causes hypothermia

The first reason is: hypothermia, including digestive enzymes, all kinds of enzymes that contribute to visceral activities are correspondingly reduced. When the body temperature drops by 1 ℃, the enzyme activity will decrease by 50%, so people are easy to feel tired, and various uncomfortable symptoms, such as constipation, stomach distension, decreased urine volume, etc., will appear frequently.

The second reason is that the bacteria and viruses that invade the human body are resisted by the white blood cells in the body. However, when the body temperature drops by 1 ℃, the immunity provided by the white blood cells will be reduced by 37%. Therefore, people with lower body temperature are more likely to catch a cold during the seasonal exchange.

The third reason is that in people with hypothermia, the peripheral blood vessels of the hands and feet will contract, and the blood will not flow easily. More because of the heart's power to transport blood weakened, so that the whole body's blood circulation worse. In addition, the function of autonomic nerve may be reduced, which may affect the ability of vasoconstriction and hinder the circulation of blood.

matters needing attention

Our body temperature is in a range, but once people find themselves suffering from hypothermia, in addition to actively cooperate with doctors for treatment, they should also pay attention to their daily diet and health care.
