It causes all of our veins and arteries to vasoconstrict, and then when the cold water is turned off, they vasodialate. Meaning our vessels contract and then relax. You are basically taking them through a workout. During this pandemic, you want to keep all systems of your body strong and healthy in order to protect you from the virus, or to help you get through it if you catch it. So before you turn the water off, turn it to its coldest setting and let it wash over you for about 30 seconds. I usually do three slow turns in one direction, then three in the other direction. If you need to yell to get through it, let it rip. This practice will make you hardy. And right now the human race could use some good, old fashioned hardiness. ✌️
