Russian Doctor Claims Your Immune System Can Recover In Only 15 Seconds! Here’s How!

This is a bit of an inconvenience to do at home but can be worked around.  Much more practical however would be for fitness spas to set this up.

It merely needs an ice maker constantly dumping ice into a foot trough in the shower room.  In that way one can step into the ice trough for fifteen seconds or more just before you actually shower of.  Actually much better and easier to handle than a cold water shower or its like.

The feet do handle abrupt chilling rather well anyway while cold water applied over the body is shock inducing.  Thus this implies maximal biological effect for minimal discomfort.  In fact, i suspect that one will begin to enjoy the timed effect.

Nice work and the biological effects measured are clear.

Professor Sergei Bubnovskiy from Moscow has an innovating new technique that can strengthen your immune system in an amazing new way!

According to the professor, soaking your legs in an ice-cold bath for 10-15 seconds after coming home from work can reinforce your immune system and prepare it for the fight against colds and the flu!

Also, a study from England found that taking daily cold showers increased the numbers of disease-fighting white blood cells (compared to people who took hot showers).

The investigators at Britain’s Thrombosis Research Institute suggested that as the body tries to warm itself during and after a cold shower, metabolic rate speeds up and activates the immune system, which leads to the release of more white blood cells.

And, according to a German study, an occasional winter swim in cold water causes oxidative stress, but, done regularly, such swimming leads to an adaptive antioxidant response; in other words, the body is better able to combat oxidative stress in general once it’s accustomed to cold-water swims.

Ice Foot-Bath Technique

Pour cold water in a bathtub or basin, then add as much ice as you can get and soak your feet in the tub for 10-15 seconds. Repeating this method every night before going to bed will improve your immune system quickly.

The method is especially beneficial for people with weak immune system – in this case, soak your feet in icy water every 4 hours.
