 Cold feet - a problem familiar to many women, it is especially characteristic for the winter period. Why the cold feet suffer more than other parts of the body, and why women suffer from this scourge more often?
It's all about the structural features of the body. Muscle mass, which is to conserve heat in this part of the body is small, subcutaneous adipose tissue is little, and the area of the skin, gives off heat, is quite high. There is a physiological explanation for the fact that women are much stronger than men, cold feet in winter - the ratio of various hormones in men and women are different, there are differences in the rate of metabolism. A woman's body is designed by nature for bearing offspring, and the task of maintaining the internal temperature of the body to maintain a balance of temperatures in the internal organs, for it is of paramount importance. But the small vessels of the hands and feet are especially on the periphery of attention, and at risk of hypothermia heat they unhesitatingly taken in favor of more important organs.
Fortunately, the situation is not hopeless, you can deal with it, and even quite affordable and simple methods. In any case, if the chill of legs is not associated with any serious illness kakii.
How to keep warm in winter
The simplest thing we can do is to dress according to the weather. If our body is reliable shelter from the cold and hypothermia internal organs are not threatened, and to take away the heat from the feet of the body there is no reason. So in the cold season, the first thing we should pay attention to - the functionality of clothing and footwear, and only her beauty and fashion trends matching albeit pray thee in second place.
 During cold weather about elegant boots with high heels and narrow toe is better to forget, winter boots should be large enough to persisted air space between the foot and footwear, and to not interfere with the tightness of the blood to move freely through the blood vessels, warming his feet. Do not neglect warm insoles, preferably wool with thermal insulation, dry them on a regular basis.
The question whether to wear tights, and how they Dolny be warm, leave to your discretion, but personally I would recommend extreme cold woolen tights under trousers and warm socks
. If your feet mёznut even with warm woolen socks, try heat-resistant - they prednaznachny mainly for tourists who are fond of winter outdoor activities, but should be fine and to prevent freezing feet in a city
. However, Thermosocks Thermosocks strife, they come in different types, are designed for different purposes and, therefore, different and protective qualities and durability, and the ability to remove moisture
. A mixture of wool and synthetic fibers is extremely popular in the production of thermal socks, as a combination of optimally solves almost all problems
. Good Thermosocks of modern synthetic materials such as Hollofil®, Thermax®, Thermastat®, they successfully combine the properties of natural materials, and, moreover, deprived of many of their shortcomings
. Socks made of such materials hold great heat (as well as wool), they are pleasant skin more durable than wool and dries quickly
. Choosing thermal socks, be careful, do not Narva on the banal forgery!
Physical activity, movement - one of the best ways to deal with the situation when cold feet. Do not stand still at the bus stop waiting for transport, walk, jump, stamping his feet. In no case do not smoke in the cold, smoking reduces peripheral blood circulation, it makes the feet vulnerable to the cold even more.
