I strongly urge people.to Google this and read about it.
I am not a doctor, so the information I have is from going to school where this was taught, and to I have no idea how.many first aid cources in Norway. No matter the teacher all of them have said that when you get cold the body responds by directing the bloodstream inward from the skin and towards the core of the body and internal organs. This is to save a person's life. In addition a human being have the ability to shiver when it gets cold. The shivering makes the muscles create heat, which again helps a person save his own life. When a person drink anything with alcohol, the direction of the blood going towards the ore of the body is reversed and it causes the core.of the body to cool down. In addition the body's ability to shiver is reduced so a person will not get as much help from that either.
It is.not.I who claim this, it is doctors and scientists who say it. It is very easy to find information about this online.
