Finns truly have lower body temperatures. 35.3°C right now.
According to american internets I am suffering from constant "hypothermia".
Also I am obviously sufferring from "bradycardia", it is not normal that 70-year old has resting pulse 45.
- SketchySeaBeast 4y agoNot knowing your own personal health no one can say, but it's common for older people with heart issues to have a slower heart rate, so you may be fit as a horse, or you could be having heart issues. If that's the case low temperature has been linked to poor outcomes with heart failure. But only your GP can decide. It just doesn't feel like the slam dunk proof of better health you're saying it is.
- timonoko 4y agoThis condition been the same for 50 years. I am worried when it changes. I am pretty sure this is somekind of hereditary trait for Tundra dwellers. If I dont sweat, mosquitoes do not bother me. Also all ticks drop off or just die.
- SketchySeaBeast 4y ago> Also all ticks drop off or just die. Ok, now I'm definitely worried about your blood.
- timonoko 4y agoAchually there was one successful tick-bite. It was July 1957. It managed to suck some blood, but removed itself rightaway when mother Noko burned it with cigarette.
- SketchySeaBeast 4y agoAh, and it told the others.
- mattkrause 4y agoI'm half worried and half envious.
- soperj 4y agoThat's interesting. I have a very low resting heart-rate and lower than normal body temperature as well. (Also from a northern area).
- __turbobrew__ 4y agosame. grew up in northern canada and have always had a low body temperature with a resting heart rate of ~47.
- deanc 4y agoSource on that lower body temperature? I live in Finland and am regularly low 36 high 35. My partner is high 36 and Finnish. I can’t lie near them without feeling overwhelmingly hot.
