Heat & Cold Hormetic Adaptability Diagnostic

Regular ice baths / cold plunges (3-5 min at 8-12°C); I thrive on it. Finish daily showers with 30-60 seconds of full cold tap water. Occasionally try a cold rinse, but find it shocking and unpleasant. Only take piping hot showers; cannot tolerate cold water.

Love it; comfortably sit for 15-20 minutes, sweating profusely and feeling renewed. Enjoy moderate heat (10-12 mins) with cool breaks in between. Get lightheaded, claustrophobic, or nauseous after 5 minutes of heat. Completely intolerant to hot rooms; triggers palpitations.

Fast; my body shivers briefly then warms itself naturally without heaters. Within 15-20 minutes with clothing and a warm herbal tea. Takes hours; hands, toes, and nose stay freezing cold all day. Experience white/numb fingers (Raynaud's symptom) and painful rewarming.

Excellent cardiovascular health, resting blood pressure and ECG normal. Generally healthy, no known cardiovascular conditions. Mild high blood pressure managed with lifestyle; need gentle protocols. Diagnosed heart condition, arrhythmia, or severe postural hypotension.
