  2. Human body temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_body_temperature

    Normal human body temperature (normothermia, euthermia) is the typical temperature range found in humans. The normal human body temperature range is typically stated as 36.5–37.5 °C (97.7–99.5 °F).

  3. Human thermoregulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_thermoregulation

    Adjusting the human body temperature downward has been used therapeutically, in particular, as a method of stabilizing a body following trauma. It has been suggested that adjusting the adenosine A1 receptor of the hypothalamus may allow humans to enter a hibernation -like state of reduced body temperature, which could be useful for applications ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Excess_post-exercise...

    Excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC, informally called afterburn) is a measurably increased rate of oxygen intake following strenuous activity.In historical contexts the term "oxygen debt" was popularized to explain or perhaps attempt to quantify anaerobic energy expenditure, particularly as regards lactic acid/lactate metabolism; [1] in fact, the term "oxygen debt" is still widely ...

    A normal body temperature typically ranges from 97 to 99 F. In comparison, a fever from an infection is typically above 100.4 F. Heatstroke occurs when the body temperature is 104 F or higher.

    A new study finds that normal human body temperatures have dropped since the late 1800s. So what you think is normal may actually be a fever

  7. Thermoregulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoregulation

    Normal body temperature is around 37°C (98.6°F), and hypothermia sets in when the core body temperature gets lower than 35 °C (95 °F). [2] Usually caused by prolonged exposure to cold temperatures, hypothermia is usually treated by methods that attempt to raise the body temperature back to a normal range. [3]

  8. Vital signs - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vital_signs

    Aural and skin temperature measurements require special devices designed to measure temperature from these locations. [11] While 37 °C (99 °F) is considered "normal" body temperature, there is some variance between individuals. Most have a normal body temperature set point that falls within the range of 36.0 to 37.5 °C (96.8 to 99.5 °F). [13]

  9. Cooling down - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooling_down

    It aids in decreasing the body's temperature, removing lactic acid from the muscles and increasing flexibility. [5] Each stretch should be held for a minimum of 10–20 seconds and stretched to the point of mild discomfort but not pain. [7] Each muscle used in mid-high-intensity exercise should then be stretched during the cool-down. [7]
