Sorry Ole, Just been super busy and should be grateful for folks like yourself with such experience and dedication to your health. Just know that you are being herd but that sometimes through a "clouded" ear.

You are right about the saunas though, I must agree. They can bring great healing in many ways. What I was talking about is different that what you are thinking though. I don't use it to focus on detoxing. Although I will get the benefit of detox it is not my goal. Let me digress a bit.

Human beings are to operate at a temperature around 98.6 degrees for optimum health. Many of us are not at that temperature, usually we are lower. The lower our core body temperature is the worse off we are. The longer it takes for our bodies to reach normal operating temperatures each day the worse off we are. We need this operating temperature to be close to the previously mentioned temperatures to allow our enzymatic pathways to function correctly. Billions of enzymatic reactions occurs in our bodies each day and they operate best when the right temperatures are met. Just the blink of an eye lid totals hundreds of thousand of enzyme reactions. Even 1 degree lower and we are dealing with many potential problems within our bodies.

When we wake up in the morning we naturally have a lower body temperature. That temperature can be a degree and a half lower. Our bodies should fairly quickly warm up to a preset temperature. If that doesn't happen then there is a problem.

The really cool part about all this is that it is not impossible to fix the problem once you know what the problem is. Just like every other living species on this planet, we too need our temperatures correct to live and live well.

Ole you hit the nail on the head about the saunas too. But I don't do it like you do since I'm working at a different goal.

To retrain your body to get up to the right temperatures after waking I make my own sauna. The only cost is heating the pot of boiling water. My temps when waking was about 97.2 and would stay at that point until about 3:00 pm. Then It would spike and go to 98.1 at 3:00 pm and upward of 98.7 after 5:00 pm.

One of the biggest problems I had was getting the right temperature readings. I tried it under the tongue, in the ear, and on the forehead. I found all those unreliable as my readings were all over the scale. Some say that the best thermometer are mercury filled, but being on amalgam site I don't think y'all would let that fly! But I have found that the BD thermometers at Wolly World works pretty darn good. I have two and they are only .1 off if any at all times. Now where to stick that thing? hmmm, rectally. Always. There is not a better place. Get good lube though.

If you are like me though you will become very well in tune with you temperatures and will know exactly what degree you are currently running really soon. Not a bad thing though. When you know that you have a low temperature problem, then you are ready to fix it.

I think that too often when our temps are read and it reads low that the thinking is that it's ok or that it is normal. Don't buy into that, believe me when I say that when you are running at the optimal temperatures you are better off and you will feel better. That's why diabetics always have lower temperatures and aging people have low temperatures.

Also for you that are fighting parasites, 1 degree makes a huge difference in one's ability to rid yourself of parasites. The body "Fevers" for a reason.
