Cold-water immersion - good for our health?
"11 studies with 3177 participants […] found"
"cold-water immersion could reduce stress levels, but for only about 12 hours post exposure"
"participants who took 20, 60, or 90 second cold showers reported slightly higher quality of life scores […] after three months these effects had faded"
"one study reporting that participants who took regular cold showers experiencing a 29% reduction in sickness absence"
"better sleep outcomes, but the data was restricted to males"
"many claims that cold-water immersion experiences can boost your immunity and mood […] very little evidence to support these claims"
"there isn't enough high-quality research to say exactly who benefits most or what the ideal approach is to cold-water immersion"
