Cold-water immersion produces beneficial brain & metabolic effects that converge on norepinephrine, a neuroendocrine hormone boosted from cold that increases mitochondrial biogenesis.
the norepinephrine is the hormone that is regulating that as you know and that does go up even after just you know 2 minutes in cold
