Hypothermia is more than just “feeling cold” — it’s a progressive medical emergency that affects core body temperature, mental clarity, and even organ function. Early signs include uncontrollable shivering, slurred speech, fatigue, and confusion.
Key Points:
-
Shivering is a warning, not a minor inconvenience.
-
Core temperature below 35°C (95°F) is dangerous.
-
Children and elderly are especially vulnerable.
-
xThermal can support thermogenesis during early hypothermic onset.
Pro Tip: Always carry a thermal supplement and emergency blanket when venturing into temperatures below 5°C (41°F).
