Keeping Your Feet Warm: Why Warm Feet Are Good For Mind And Body
Our feet play a vital role in regulating our body temperature. Like our hands, they have a large surface area and lots of blood vessels. These can open up to let more blood flow, which allows heat to flow out of them.
They’re also at the end of our limbs (that’s why they’re sometimes called ‘extremities’) and they have less heat-producing muscle, which also makes them prone to cooling down. If they get too cold, our pain receptors are triggered and we feel discomfort – unless we can put on some really toasty socks.
You’ve probably heard the saying that people lose most heat from the top of their heads. In fact, this is a myth. You’re no more likely to lose heat from your head than any other part of your body – apart from your hands and feet. So while you’ll probably want to wear a hat in winter (particularly if you’re short of natural insulation up top), your best bet for warmth is actually gloves and socks.
Feet can also get cold because of poor circulation, which can be the result of a range of health problems, including arthritis, Raynaud’s Syndrome, diabetes, multiple sclerosis (MS), muscular dystrophy (MD) and fibromyalgia. Sometimes, people with diabetes also suffer from peripheral neuropathy, where they get persistent aches, pains or numbness in one or both of their feet. Keeping your feet warm can help to improve circulation and offer much-needed relief to people suffering from these and other conditions.
