00:00Welcome back Sunbro. We hope you all in great health and great money.

00:04Before we start, please at least subscribe so we can have little money for food and paying bills.

00:09Alright, today we are going to talk about why you should start taking cold showers today.

00:15Cold showers under 70 degrees Fahrenheit or 21 degrees Celsius might sound brutal,

00:20but they've got some surprising health benefits. People have used cold water therapy or

00:24hydrotherapy for centuries to help the body adapt to stress. While it's not a cure for anything,

00:29it can help with symptoms and boost your overall well-being. Here's how.

00:331. Boosts mood and helps with pain. Cold showers can help improve how you feel,

00:38especially if you struggle with depression or chronic pain. A 2023 study found that just

00:435 minutes in cold water made people feel more alert and inspired. It's also useful for fibromyalgia,

00:48pool therapy, especially warm water for some is commonly recommended.

00:522. Can support metabolism. Your body has both white fat, the kind linked to obesity,

00:57and brown fat, the good kind you're born with. Cold water activates brown fat,

01:01which can help regulate the bad kind. While cold showers alone won't make you lose weight,

01:06they may support hormone balance and gut health, which could help with weight management.

01:103. Improves circulation. Cold water makes your body work to stay warm,

01:14which improves blood flow and immunity over time. It can even speed up recovery by pushing fresh,

01:19oxygen-rich blood to where it's needed.

01:224. Strengthens your immune system. Cold water shocks your system a bit,

01:25in a good way. It can stimulate white blood cells that fight off illness,

01:30potentially helping your body resist common colds and the flu.

01:335. Know the risks. Cold showers aren't a miracle fix.

01:36They should add to your current treatments, not replace them, especially for mental health.

01:41If you're on meds, immune-compromised, or just got out of the hospital,

01:44skip cold showers until you're fully recovered. Also, don't quit your prescriptions for this,

01:49always talk to your doctor. How to start.

01:52Don't jump straight into icy water. End your regular shower with 2-3 minutes of cooler water.

01:57It should feel uncomfortable, but bearable. Breathe deeply to stay calm.

02:01Next time, go a bit colder and stay in longer.

02:04Do this 7-10 times, and you might even start enjoying it.
