In this episode we talk to Dr Susanna Soeberg who talks us through her research on hot and cold exposure and why this approach is beneficial.

Susanna describes the impact of this practice on physical and mental well-being, and discuss the key role of brown fat in this process. For those of us who don’t have a sauna at home she explains some good workarounds!

Susanna’s book ‘Winter Swimming - the Nordic way towards a healthier and happier life’ is available to order at https://is.gd/4GKlr0 and for those of you who really want to get into the science her recent paper is available at https://is.gd/L5Btk2

We hope you enjoy the show.
