What can I do to keep warm

Our winters are cold and long traffic jams, because of what transport is necessary to wait a long time, standing in the cold. In such circumstances, even tempered person, sadly, no, no, yes, and remember, the summer heat.

 Why do people freeze? Medicine calls the two root causes: violation of the blood circulation and low temperature environment. It is important, incidentally, share the concept of "cold" and "frost" (shivering). The latter refers to the fevers of various origins, and requires special attention and a separate discussion. Today, the hero of our freezing - winter.
Arguments about the genetic predisposition, in terms of origin, "Northerner", "Southerner" - not advisable because it does not give us the main thing - the answer to the question "what to do to not get cold."
Mental attitude - a tool that can be used, but the lack of it, alas, not for long. But worth a try. This is what psychologists advise.
Do not have to dread to think about that now you have to go out on the cold street. Try to "bypass" these thoughts and replace them with something nice. Not all that bad, really! For example, in the cold - viruses are dying like flies. Well after all? A more useful to remember that this is only a temporary inconvenience that during the winter followed by spring (rather than next winter, brrr!). Too good! A number of winter holidays! Oh yes, and some - most joyous, expected with a totally childish sincere spiritual awe! We must try to love the winter, be sure! Otherwise - no way! All the same, come insidious! Do not sit at home all the same three months! In general, "cheat" frost: it stings you, and you - rejoice. He element, and you - being reasonable. Do you - advantage!
If you have managed a "persuade" - for a while, you will feel comfort. But to ignore the long frost, 15-20 degrees commercials, does not succeed, unless, of course, do not possess all kinds of meditation practices (such as Tibetan monks, for example). In addition, the body's reaction to cold - it's completely natural and necessary response. Otherwise, many of us would threaten hypothermia.
Therefore, there are a few tips, which would be worth considering. Hunger - the best food for a cold
In cold weather, not the worst state for a human being than hunger. Winter diet - it's fat protein foods, spiced. Proteins will give us warmly, and spices - to reinforce the exchange and the digestive processes, activating blood circulation.
Alcohol does not warm, but will only aggravate the situation. In the cold season, for "sugrevu" You can only eat hot drinks, and not "intoxicating." The latter, only a short time, "has slowed down the response to cold, but then taken away from the body mass of energy on the removal of alcohol toxins.
Movement - a life in a cold environment - survival. Keep this in mind, and if to wait a while transport, better walk a couple of stops on foot. Not marking time.
Pay attention to winter footwear. It should not be narrow, cramped. And it's not how you wear socks or not. Heat, which produces the body shall be kept somewhere (device thermos, remember?).
Clothes should not hamper the movement. Remember the playground. Who among kids freezes faster? That's right, the one who dressed "like the North Pole." This is because, wrapped up, baby can not move actively. A large amount of clothing does not allow muscles to relax and function normally. Us adults, this rule also applies. It is ironic, but the less wear, the warmer.
But it must be properly dressed. Again, again, remember the thermos: a hot drink in it - this is our temperature, ensures a normal blood circulation, skin - the first of the walls of the bulb, gives off heat, and clothing acts as a second wall to keep warm. Therefore, the most important part of the winter wardrobe is that when the body - warm underwear made from natural fabrics. Skin - the same authority as any other, it is necessary to ensure normal breathing. Synthetic fabrics that do not contribute. The fact that the basis of synthetic fibers - oil. Design, which is that they do not weave breathable, respectively, does not allow the skin to breathe.

Of course, speaking of winter clothes, not to mention the underwear, it would not be fair.
Initially, it was used as the bottom layer of sportswear.
It presents and its different types: heat saving - from the title it is clear that it minimizes heat loss. But since it is made from synthetic fabrics, for sporting activities with a small load, fits very well. But for everyday - no.
Water transpiration - made from 100% synthetic, which has a good ability to remove moisture from the skin surface. It is clear that such underwear to those engaged in physical activity (or sport) a high intensity. In these circumstances, the matter be kept dry so as not to supercooled the end of lessons.
Hybrid underwear - this is perhaps something that is quite suitable for everyday use, since it has both of these functions. But, buying such clothes, remember that winter sports (skiing, skating, etc.) - it will be a two-layer: the first layer - water transpiration (synthetic fabric), and external - heat-(made from wool, cotton or mixed compositions ).
For daily use, it is better suited clothing from Merino wool (it's New Zealand lamb). Of course, alas, like all high-quality - not cheap, but there are a number of advantages: linen merino wool light and thin, so, quick, wool is absolutely not barbed, but on the contrary, silky and very soft to the touch.
In general, in order not to freeze: the right to dress, eat rationally, to move.
And let the winter will bring you joy!
