Hey gang! I started doing cold showers, or at least my version of them, last summer in 2021 and wanted to make a quick video about the cold exposure benefits I've noticed. I could have easily made this video 20 minutes long because I have that much to say, but I kept it to just 3 benefits of cold showers and my experience with this fad. The gist of it is that this is one of those extreme health fads that actually makes sense. I can see why people do it. Is cold stress necessary to be healthy and fit? No, definitely not. But can it help boost your health and fitness? Absolutely! I hope the video sheds some light on this for those of you who aren't familiar with the topic. Some evidence also suggested that cold exposure can boost your immune system, but I didn't include that because my immune system has been GREAT since I switched to a plant based diet 🌱💪. So I honestly can't say I've noticed any immune benefits from cold showers.
Btw, I referred to myself as a "pansy" when it comes to cold showers and I meant that as I'm a bit of a coward with them (I hate the cold!). It didn't dawn on me until after shooting this video that the term pansy might have an offensive connotation to it, so I just want to mention I did NOT mean it offensively in any way - just in the sense of "cowardly." My apologies for that! 🙏
Thanks for watching!
