Body thermoregulation

Man is a homeotherm: a living being whose average, constant temperature is independent of the surrounding environment...

Resisting the cold, adapting to the heat, maintaining an internal temperature of around 37°C at all times, whatever our metabolic rate or the temperature of the surrounding environment: this is the principle of thermoregulation.

When a person is exposed to the cold for too long, their body may become unable to maintain an adequate temperature to function properly. If the oral temperature falls below 35°C, the person is hypothermic.

Hyperthermia, on the other hand, is a rise in body temperature caused by an accumulation of heat. This phenomenon occurs in particular during sunstroke or heatwaves.

Being “too” cold or “too” hot is a source of discomfort, and can even lead to injuries such as frostbite...

Why are feet and hands more exposed to the cold?

Feet and hands are the first limbs affected by the sensation of cold, mainly due to reduced blood circulation at these levels. In addition to a sensation of local cold, this creates a loss of motricity and overall body fatigue.

The brain, alerted by this unpleasant sensation, triggers a surge of energy to warm the hands and feet, without success for the most sensitive.

For example, people suffering from Raynaud's disease (3 to 12% of men and 6 to 20% of women are affected). The result is a feeling of weakness and shivering.

The benefits of heated garments

G-Heat has developed its range of heated garments to (re)act when the body can no longer do so, and to prevent the risks associated with the cold, providing continuous warmth and comfort during your activities.

These high-performance garments are ideal for outdoor activities in cold weather, and can even be used without batteries when temperatures remain cool but bearable, but also as comfort aids for anyone suffering from the cold.
