1. How does our body react to the cold?

Our feet perform essential functions for our body, such as facilitating movement, balance, and thermal adaptation.

Being further away from the heart, they are more vulnerable to cold, as the body regulates temperature by contracting or dilating superficial and distal blood vessels.


When we feel cold in our feet, it means that the body is preserving the heat of vital organs, reducing blood flow to the extremities.

Conversely, when there is an excess of heat in the torso and head, the body cools itself by increasing blood flow to the hands and feet.


For this reason, cold usually affects us first through our feet, then our hands, and then our legs. If the cold persists, it can affect the torso and cause shivering, which is a warning sign before hypothermia.

Let's remember that hypothermia occurs when the body temperature drops below 35ºC, which is only 2ºC less than normal.

2. Socks, key to keeping your feet warm.

The humidity and perspiration our body produces are cold's main allies. If the clothes we wear close to our skin are not able to wick away the moisture created by our activity, we lose heat faster than if the clothes were dry.

Feet are a part of the body with many sweat glands and no sebaceous glands. Therefore, socks have to do a difficult job, and only the best succeed.

Darn Tough socks are the best for keeping feet dry and controlling perspiration. They are made with the finest merino wool, have a very tight weave, and a special structure that makes them unique in preventing cold and odor. In addition, these socks have an unconditional lifetime guarantee against rips, tears, and wear.

3. Why does using Gehwol creams help keep your feet warm?

To keep our feet in optimal condition, it is essential to apply a quality foot cream that regulates perspiration and hydration.

Gehwol is a leading brand in foot care, with a variety of products that adapt to the needs of each person.

4. The importance of hydration for the temperature of our feet?

Finally, don't forget to drink hot liquids to keep your body hydrated and warm. A good way to do this is to carry a thermos with you wherever you go. Zojirushi thermoses are among the best on the market, as they retain temperature for hours and have an elegant and practical design. You can fill your Zojirushi thermos with coffee, tea, or any other beverage you like and enjoy it at any time.

Drinking hot beverages will help raise your body temperature, helping to keep your hands and feet warm.
