I've looked into cold showers several times, but always end up on some quack's website or a blog post with no convincing evidence. I did a cold shower the other day and it was amazingly refreshing, but it was more of a mental, "Hell yeah, I'm tough!" feeling than probably any metabolic process. Thanks for kicking up some skeptical dirt, a lot of the commenters seem totally convinced.

This is the problem with "alternative therapies". I am sure at least some of them work (yoga for example must have health benefits) but they all get lumped in together with the quack ones as well.
