Mother's breasts may protect a newborn from the cold—a new perspective on breast evolution Humans differ from other primates due to their relatively large, permanent breasts, and their development has so far not been conclusively explained. According to a study conducted at the University of Oulu, Finland, the surface temperature of the breasts combined with their size and shape may help a newborn maintain body temperature.

#Breasts may protect a newborn from #hypothermia:
'the surface temperature of the breasts of breastfeeding women was slightly higher than in the other groups studied.'

How Your Body Knows ‘98.6’ Without a Thermometer Your brain does not carry a NIST‑traceable thermometer. It does something stranger. From birth, without ever seeing a Celsius scale, you stabilize around a narrow thermal zone where your chemistry works best, sweating and shivering in a choreography you never consciously learned. That is why the folk memory of “normal” as 98.6 °F persists, even though it was never a magic number.

Your body nails “98.6” without ever reading a scale. Meet the brain circuits, daily rhythms, and fever logic that keep you in range. #BodyTemperature #CircadianRhythm #Fever #Hypothalamus #Thermoregulation

A brain–body perspective on thermoregulatory adaptation Aten et al. review how brain–body interactions modulate the thermoregulatory system under homeostatic or adaptive conditions, including sickness, torpor and pregnancy.

As days are getting cooler in the Northern hemisphere and our planet is being cooked by reckless humans, #thermoregulation concerns all of us.

Heating Jackets vs Cooling Vests: Wearable Thermoregulation Reviewed Heating jackets warm with battery power—great for the cold, but energy-intensive. Cooling vests use phase-change or evaporative tech—often no electricity needed. Passive cooling vests win on sustainability and simplicity. In icy weather, heated jackets are life-saving tech. Choose based on your climate—and use it for years. www.bilolomedia.com @bilolomedia
