Is cold water swimming good for you? – BBC News
Cold water swimming has grown in popularity in recent years, with many participants claiming it has physical and mental health benefits.
Now scientists at Portsmouth University, UK are testing these claims with surprising results.
The university’s Dr Heather Massey says studies have shown that cold water immersion has some “therapeutic effect” on conditions such as high blood pressure, migraines and symptoms of menopause and depression.

The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

Explosions have been heard near two Iranian port cities, Bandar Abbas and Bushehr, state media has reported.
It comes after another night of strikes between the US and Iran, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying it hit two UAE tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and targeted US facilities in Jordan and Bahrain.
The UAE called the attack “brazen”, adding that an Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured.
Meanwhile, the US military says it completed strikes on targets aimed at degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping” – Iranian state media reports three people were killed.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

I love cold water swimming! It’s rejuvenating! I do a warm up first then swim. It calms my mind and rests my body. The water seems warm when you’re moving.

doing cold shower is much difficult comparing to cold swimming, you stand in such very thin water and air flowing through, my advise is go straight to the clean ocean, submerging in cold water keeps away the air, with swimcap unless you want to keep it real short like under 2 minutes, dont overstay without headgear, i have tried that and that could kill you for sure even you could stand upright , by the time you noticed that you could no longer command yourself, a sudden current could carry you away , freezing the brain is very dangerous ,go in pair or group if applicable , remember have swimcap ready even you aim for extreme, you may try bare head in the last minute and in very shallow water i suggest knee depth, you will see how helpless you can be without your heart supporting your brain in such condition, 10 to 15degree celciius water is the best temperature it is very ideal for swimming where you could go for some distance,spending around 10 to 30 minutes enjoying water view with sealives, the next level will be under 10 celcius degree which is more like bathing , you cant do much swimming , is all about endurance therein, ice bathing is just like standing in shower with cold water ,too hardcore and almost no fun i find, overall i find cold swimming is very helpful in lessening moral burden, in summer or in places where cold water beach isnt available, i suggest you practise fasting like what Muslims and Buddhists do, cold swimming and fasting both allows you to calibrate your state of being for the better , but remember never overdo, just like anything in nature , overdoing is worse off than not doing it at all

I have been swimming in cold water for 5 years and share this passion with a large community in Switzerland. Keeping a regular routine (everyday) has healed me and I witness, it has transformed many ☺ I noticed starting with a pair can help to start the process and keep you motivated !!
