What Is Core Body Temperature?
Your core body temperature is a measurement of your internal temperature using a thermometer in your ear, mouth, armpit, or rectum or on your forehead, according to the University of Michigan.
And that means actual core body temperature is different from our "feelings," Christopher Minson, PhD, a researcher and professor of human physiology at the University of Oregon, Eugene, tells LIVESTRONG.com. "Why people feel 'hot' or 'cold' at the same temperature is all due to perception." Ultimately, he adds, "temperature differences between our 'core,' our skin and the environment" determine how we may feel.
"Normal" core temperature is usually within a few decimals of 98 degrees Fahrenheit (F), ranging from 97 to 99 F, according to the National Library of Medicine (NLM).
Temperatures above and below that normal range can signal health concerns:
- Temperatures above 100.4 F indicate a fever, usually from illness.
- Temperatures at or above 104 F point to heat stroke, a life-threatening condition, notes the American Academy of Family Physicians.
- Hypothermia refers to an equally dangerous change when your temperature dips below 95 F, according to the NLM.
Though 98.6 F has been long considered the core body temperature standard, a December 2017 British Medical Journal study found that the average temperature across a group of 35,488 people was closer to 97.9 F.
There's also variation among individuals and devices used. An April 2019 study in Open Forum Infectious Diseases reported that the rectum or ear tend to yield higher measurements than the armpit or mouth. Younger people also tend to have slightly higher core body temperatures than older individuals.
Weight Loss and Body Temperature
When you lose weight, the numbers on the scale aren't the only things that change. Thermoregulation, or the modulation of body temperature, changes as your metabolism and body fat percentage shift. Put on an extra layer of clothing and drink a steaming cup of herbal tea to keep yourself warm and toasty.
Thermodynamics
The body of a person with overweight or obesity has a small surface area to volume ratio. Heat is held in the body and lost through the skin. Consequently, large people retain a warm body temperature easily, and heat dissipates across their skin slowly. Conversely, a thin person with a large surface area to volume ratio gains and loses heat rapidly. A person with obesity also has a higher percentage of body fat -- an insulator -- which facilitates heat retention.
How to Control Your Core Body Temperature
Health experts at the University of Michigan note that your body constantly adjusts to keep your inner temperature consistent. In cold weather, for example, you shiver if you aren't warm.
The hypothalamus, a small region at the base of the brain, makes all this possible, according to Arizona State University. It compares your current temperature to your norm, sending signals just like a thermostat to help your body adjust.
Because your body is already wired to maintain its norm, you really can't "control" it per se or increase your own core body temperature. You can, however, help your body respond better to external factors.
Try these ways to warm up:
- Get Dressed
Dress appropriately for the weather, and in layers, according to Outdoor Action at Princeton University. Avoid damp or wet clothing because moisture near the skin cools you down. A hat is also a great accessory because lots of heat is released from your head. - Stay Active
Physical activity increases core body temperature because working muscles generate heat as they use energy, according to the Mayo Clinic. - Eat a Balanced Diet
More and stronger research is needed, but an October 2016 review in Nutrients suggests eating higher-calorie meals (and possibly those with protein and carbs rather than fats) may increase your core temperature slightly. - Try a Sauna or Steam
Some people enjoy a hot shower or sauna visit to stay warm, and the sweating is a help to keeping your temp in check. It's best to use these in 10- to 15-minute intervals, according to Harvard Health Publishing. Avoid them if you're pregnant, younger than 16 or sick. - Talk to Your Doctor
If you consistently feel too cold, talk to your doctor. You may have a condition that impacts temperature regulation or your body's ability to maintain heat in hands, fingers and toes, notes the Cleveland Clinic.
Do the Obese Have Lower Body Temperatures? A New Look at a Forgotten Variable in Energy Balance
“Gluttony and sloth”, over eating and lack of exercise, obviously play an important role in the genesis of obesity. But the decisive demonstration that individuals differ in metabolic efficiency indicates that other factors are also at play. Evidence summarized here suggests that lower core temperature in the obese may be one such factor. Studies of body temperature in the obese under different circumstances (exercise, sleeping, after meals) are feasible and may reveal important differences between lean and obese. If this proves to be the case, a new therapeutic target, body temperature, may emerge.
