Adapting to a cold environment by wearing minimal clothing for a few days can lead to cold adaptation.

“And that's exactly what they observed in this study by Søberg et al. The men felt more comfortable in extreme cold if they had trained through deliberate cold exposure, which might not seem surprising at all, but based on what we talked about earlier, whereby deliberate cold exposure evokes this discomfort and this experience of norepinephrine release, at least in the short term, then you would say, well, shouldn't that deliberate cold exposure also make them feel uncomfortable like they really want to get out?”

“what one finds and what you will find if you do deliberate cold exposure consistently is that you will then become more comfortable at cold temperatures away from the deliberate cold exposure.”

“the key is to wear a t-shirt in here for about two three days and then you will cold adapt”

“I live chronically in cold stress in the winter. So, I let my temperature fluctuate with the outside. My heat is set, maybe, at 50. So, it goes up sometimes because the day is warm and you get whatever. [Rhonda]: Wow. That' what night is, it's get cold. [Ray]: It's cool. Yeah, I don't sleep... [Rhonda]: Fifties. [Ray]: And I don't sleep with blankets.”
