I definitely feel a lot cleaner walking out of a cold shower than a hot one. Plus it definitely has some benefits for my skin, I'm not breaking out as much as I usually do.

But also I've been sleeping better, taking one before bed helps a lot. Also taking one when I wake up has nearly eliminated my need for coffee in the morning. I even think I may have lost a pound or two, and I haven't changed my diet or work out routine at all.

Plus it's the best hangover cure. Used to take hot showers when I woke up hung over, but nah, jump in a cold one.

    I experimented with this once and had a similar experience as what you describe. Then came winter and I gave up because landlord won't turn on the radiators. Also I don't really trust cold water to clean my nasty ass. Cavemen could probably get away with it but they didn't have millions of people grown infants living crammed in a tiny space?

        Mao literally died because he underestimated the winter cold when there's no heating. Learn from history!
