Interesting. From my experience, coldness of feet is correlated with blood circulation. There are periods when my feet are cold (going together with the restless legs syndrome at night), and I think it goes away when circulation improves. My theory is that exposing feet to elements is another trick to improve blood flow to them, I’ve been meaning to try that.
- forgotmypw17 6y agoIf you don't have any snow to walk through, just give 'em an ice water dip. You can do your whole body, too, with similar benefits. It's uncomfortable, but what isn't... In my experience, and I've not found any studies to support this, restless legs correlates with oxygen levels vs carbon monoxide and/or carbon dioxide levels. Check your air.
- goblin89 6y agoMaybe oxygen then? Worse circulation or carbon monoxide could be involved, then. I don’t think there’s anywhere for CO to come from, however air quality varies (CO2 levels easily reach 1000 ppbv at times).
- forgotmypw17 6y agoYes, that's what I meant. I've edited my comment.
- trhway 6y ago>restless legs correlates with oxygen levels yep, my RLS has pretty much gone since i started iron&B12 supplementation after i discovered anemia on my blood test (i have a condition affecting B12)

- forgotmypw17 6y agoYes, are bodies are wonderful and still mysterious miracles of spaghetti code.
