Warming up Hands and Feet
In casting about for foot warming ideas I’ve just done a quick search online and gathered a few tips to start our brainstorming session;
Cold hands and feet can be a result of certain diseases, drinking too little water, etc. Find out the cause.
Buy these hand warmer packets. (Giant Tiger has them 4/$1.49) Play around with them inside your gloves.
Don’t smoke or drink coffee, both impair circulation.
Powder your feet to absorb sweat moisture - that moisture in the cold feels even colder!
Mittens are better than gloves, and polypropylene or polyester blend socks transport moisture away from your skin.
Fish rich in omega-3 fatty acids help, and so do iron-rich foods (or supplements). Eat more fish.
Sprinkle cayenne pepper into your socks, or use an ointment like Zostrix which has cayenne it.
Okay… your turn. What have you tried?
