Like many people, especially women, are you always cold?
Here are a few common reasons to explain why you are always cold.
* Skipping meals – The body conserves energy and produces less heat when you don’t eat.
* Not getting enough sleep – This can make you feel rundown and less active.
* Anemia – A simple blood test can detect if you are anemic.* Hormonal imbalances – In women, fluctuating estrogen levels can make you sensitive to cold temperatures.
* Raynaud’s disease – The blood vessels and smaller arteries that supply blood to the skin constrict and limit circulation.
* Low body weight – Alvarez said he is referring to muscle mass and body fat. Using your muscles generates heat, and fat acts as insulation.
Be careful before taking out huge loans to get a degree from a for-profit college. Make sure you're not getting suckered into for-profit college scams that leave you with no job and huge debt.
