The research shows that women, on average, are more 2.5 degrees indicates that you are comfortable in a warmer room.

This is exactly why you can’t agree on the water temperature when you shower together. According to the studies of scientists, the reason for this situation is the by muscle ratio relating to.

When the heat management of men and women is examined, it is seen that men are more advantageous.

Because the male’s body weight over total body weight 40% of builds muscles. When a man works a muscle, he spends 1/3 of his energy on work. The rest of the energy is dissipated as heat. In other words, our muscles are the heater of our body.

The proportion of muscle in the female body is only 23%, almost half that of the male.

As a result, the woman’s body heating is relatively weaker. Heat loss is also an important factor. The surface area of ​​our body is responsible for this. You shrink when you’re cold, don’t you? So you reduce your surface area.

Thus, you will emit less heat to the environment. Here, too, there is a difference between men and women. if they are the same size woman’s surface area more than that of a man. So it emits more heat.

High heat loss, poor heating system; not convenient at all. But the female body reacts to it.

Vital organs and brain 37 degrees To keep it warm, less blood goes to other body parts, such as arms, legs, and nose. In this way, heat is directed to the center of the body.

When the weather gets colder, the capillaries in women’s feet shrink more quickly. Where blood does not go, heat does not go.
