So when was the last time you had a cold? A year ago, few months ago or maybe yesterday? As crazy as it sounds, but there is a way to stay cold-resistent for your whole life. The key lies in strengthening your immune system. Vitamins is not the only solution nor the most reliable one, a far more cheap and better way that may help you to develop a rock-hard immune system is a cold shower.

It’s not a masochistic fetish, it’s a healthy lifestyle. Short cold showers in the morning have immense benefits on the chemistry of your body.

• Cold water helps you to produce more glutathione as well as other enzyms that help you reduce reactive oxygen (including oxygen ions, free radicals and peroxides both organinc and inorganic). As a result your natural decay of organic material is reduced. You look younger.
• Low levels of reactive oxygen mean low risk of cancer.
• Regular cold showers make you half as likely to get any chest infection than people who always stick to warm showers.
• Cold showers bring more blood to remote body parts and provide a better blood circulation. As a result you have a reduced blood pressure in your organs and all the toxins are literally flushed out of your system.
• Your mucous membranes become stronger, that gives you resistence to fever, allergies, colds, coughs, etc.
• Most important: your nervous system becomes much stronger. You can deal better with stress, you are calm, you can relax better, you are simply cool.

No coffee in the world can wake you up better than an ice cold shower. It takes some self-discipline to go through it, though. First few weeks are the worst, but you get used to it later. Bodytweaking’s philosophy is that you have to suffer, if you want to look good, be strong and healthy. It doesn’t matter if it’s a workout, a cold shower or a thesis you have to write for college: everything takes some effort, courage, determination and fortitude. That’s the difference between a real bodytweaker and the dregs of humanity.

You are going to take a cold shower tomorrow morning. I am going to take one, too.

Note: A real bodytweaker takes a cold shower at least 5 times a week.
Cost: 0$ for a cold shower. You actually save energy costs.
