Try taking more iron. Even if you don't take supplements, get it in
your food. Prunes, molasses, eggs, meats etc.
Hello Kathleen, maybe you eat a lot of "cooling" foods? Some foods
activate responses in the body to increase temperature, and other foods
to decrease temperature. It's kind of an Eastern yin/yang thing, that I
find also has a basis in science. If I eat a lot of nuts in the
evening, often I wake up too warm, even in winter though I keep my heat
very low. The best info I've seen on it is in the book "Healing with
Whole Foods" by Paul Pitchford, but here is a link to some info:

you might consider adding in a little kelp and/or evening primrose
oil.These both helped me feel a little warmer.. - they enhance thyroid function.
if they eat protein they are warmer, and if she eats a diet higher in fats
(fat on the meat, sauté with olive oil, homemade mayo) her feet are not
cold when she
ice skates in the winter anymore. I learned this thing about fats on
www.mercola.com
either in their newsletter or on a search.
Also was informed and i should have known, there is lots of information in
the archives.
Thanks to all. I know now I am not alone.
