| Â | Temperature of a Healthy Human (Body Temperature) |
 | | Though the body temperature measured on an individual can vary, a healthy human body can maintain a fairly consistent body temperature that is around the mark of 37.0 degrees celsius. | | | The normal core body temperature of a healthy, resting adult human being is stated to be at 98.6 degrees fahrenheit or 37.0 degrees celsius. | | | I vaguely remember hearing that the oft-quoted healthy human body temperature of 98.6 degrees fahrenheit was a "factoid"-- a statement treated as factual that has, in fact, never been verified. |

| Â | Body Temperature Regulation |
| | In a hot environment, the body sends a signal to the brain via the spinal cord to say the body is overheating, the brain then sends a signal back down the spinal cord and tells the body to cool itself by perspiration which evaporates and cools the skin. | | | For the nasal congestion, I use a nasal decongestant, and its supprising how effective this can be at cooling the body down. | | | In cold weather, the body senses the lower temperature and our brain tells us to put more clothes on to warm ourselves up. |

| | The anterior portion of the hypothalamus controls heat loss by means of peripheral vasodilatation and sweating when the body temperature is above the normal set point. | | | The hypothalamus is the central component of several neural feedback loops that monitor body temperature and bring about changes to maintain the temperature within an optimum range. | | | The posterior portion is responsible for conserving heat when the body temperature falls, producing peripheral vasoconstriction and shivering. |

| Â | 3/12/97 - Why is 72 degrees Fahrenheit the most comfortable temperature? |
| | We need to be surrounded by air that is cooler than our body temperature by just the right amount so that heat flows away from our bodies at the same rate we generate it. | | | Our bodies generate heat at a certain rate, and to remain at a constant 98.6 degrees we must dissipate excess heat to the air. | | | However, if the temperature outside was 98.6 degrees, no heat would flow and your body temperature would rise because of the heat you generate. |
