Dear friends and colleagues,
As you maybe knowing or experiencing, a dangerous heatwave is continuing to affect the southern part of the United States, with California and Nevada expected to see more daily record high temperatures in the week ahead. However, this letter is not about the debate of climate change, but rather to find solutions for being productive and fit when you feel the effects of extreme climate.
How Bad Weather Affects Us
On the physical front, when it’s too hot, there’s an increase in heat-related illnesses such as heat cramps, heat exhaustion, heatstroke, and hyperthermia. Extreme heat can also worsen chronic conditions such as cardiovascular disease, respiratory disease, cerebrovascular disease, and diabetes-related conditions.
Similarly, excesses of cold, wind, dryness, etc., need urgent attention or can start harming the cells of the body in various ways. Dry air has the ability to worsen a wide range of health issues, from respiratory conditions and skin problems to nosebleeds, dry eyes, sore throats, and more. In cold weather, blood flow increases to the vital organs, and reduces to your extremities. According to this detailed article by Everyday Health - asthma, diabetes, arthritis, autoimmune diseases, cancer, COPD, IBD, and mental health patients need to be extra cautious in extremely cold temperatures.
I also pity writers, like yours truly, and workers who are up against a deadline in such situations and can relate to the dilemma, of “chilling out” or “doing work” when the temperature gives you every reason to choose the former. Regardless of your age, its no doubt that temperature affects temperament.
For Feeling Better in Bad Weather..
When the weather is very hot, have lots of fruits and raw vegetables or foods with high-water content. On the other hand, during cold weather, use therapies that improve blood circulation and have higher calories in one’s diet. During dry weather have foods with high water-content and when the weather is humid and rainy, eat drier.
Managing your acid levels can be a key into staying resilient and sharp. An alkaline diet can be helpful for those wanting to prevent metabolic acidosis which leads to several of the conditions named above.
After practicing the right diet, water intake and physical activity level, one can also look at supportive wellness therapies that can further fill the gaps in feeling good and enhancing performance.
For most urban dwellers, using air-conditioning is a fact of life during the hot summers. However, most believers in living a more natural life will tell you that the modern methods of cooling down can be counterproductive. By directly interfering with your body’s heat using air conditioning or other un-natural methods, you may actually be weakening the body. On the other hand, if the body has immunological and natural strength, it will adapt to the change in temperature without significant long-term percussions. The wellness therapies we work with enhance the body’s immunological power using light, electromagnetic fields and the most abundant and smallest molecule in the universe..
Molecular Hydrogen
Molecular Hydrogen functions as an antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and has antiapoptotic (cell death) protective effects on cells and organs and the ability to mitigate a variety of diseases. It can indeed be useful to overcome fatigue, develop stamina and improve tolerance of hot weather. In general, it is a valuable option for sedentary people whose metabolic powers have declined.
The benefits of molecular hydrogen therapy in hot weather are two-fold. First, H2 is non-toxic because water is the by-product of its free-radical neutralizing reactions. Each molecule of H2 neutralizes two hydroxyl radicals into two molecules of H2O, providing the additional benefit of cellular hydration.
Secondly, free radicals are both a cause and a result of inflammation. Free radical damage causes inflammation. In turn, chronic inflammation generates free radicals, thus, creating more inflammation. This vicious cycle can damage virtually any tissue of the body, including the brain, heart, pancreas, thyroid gland, etc. Metaphorically speaking, chronic inflammation is a forest fire raging out of control in the body. By exerting a powerful antioxidant action, molecular hydrogen cools down “burning fires” within the tissues.
Scientifically, as per this paper from a scientist from Serbia, because of its high pH and significant anti-oxidative effects, drinking hydrogen-rich water in the treatment of metabolic acidosis could be of particular interest.
Additionally, in two large hydrogen inhalation clinical trials using 3000 ml/min or 3 L/min for type-2 diabetes patients, it was found that it significantly improves glycemic control, weight, insulin dose, lipid metabolism, β-cell function and insulin resistance of patients with type 2 diabetes after 6 months.
Hydrogen inhalation also has great effects for lung health. Lungs suffer during extreme weather and those with COPD can experience flareups if they are not careful. Read our section on lung health in the benefits of hydrogen inhalation article to see how hydrogen protects and nurtures the lungs.
To be honest, it was the beautifully rejuvenating effects of H2 on the heart and lungs that led me to try it. At that time, I really needed to add a therapy to the home’s wellness stack for heart health and diabetes. While PEMF has use and decent effects on heart health too, Hydrogen took the cake due to its superior and quicker action in these areas.
What’s more, H2 also has great research on eye health and ocular diseases. Our H2 eye is the first of it’s kind, an advanced eye massager with atomized steam providing hot/cold compress treatment to the eyes and also allows implanting H2.

Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy
PEMF has been researched and applied for hundreds of conditions and it’s efficacy has been studied on several cellular and biological systems. There has been much clinical research including RCTs that have studied the efficacy of pulsed electromagnetic field therapy for pain relief even in chronic pain conditions. In many of these studies, PEMF has been found to be effective for pain management such as in fibromyalgia, osteoarthritis, discogenic low back pain, CRPS, gynecological pelvic pain, tendinitis, headaches, neuropathy, epicondylitis & tennis elbow, diabetic polyneuropathy and more. Some of the most noticeable effects with whole-body PEMF stimulation are:
Improved sleep and reduced depression/anxiety
Reduced in pain and symptoms of Arthritis and Osteoporosis
And more..
In the short-term, benefits can vary based on the selection of the PEMF device used, duration and frequency of treatment as well as physiological, genetic and environmental factors. But you’ll be surprised with what can be achieved with sustained use.. you can read more of our articles to see the huge amount of research on the technology for various conditions.
Low-intensity PEMF devices are used mainly in improving cellular health and boosting natural healing. Low-intensity PEMF devices work well for whole-body and regular use. It’s important to note that very weak PEMF fields in the nano and microtesla range have also been shown to be effective in many conditions. Nano or Picotesla PEMF research was pioneered by Dr. Sandyk in the United States. It might be sensible to start with lowest intensity products to see how they affect you before shifting to higher intensity PEMF machines.
High-intensity PEMF has shown to have rapid results for chronic pain, brain disorders (as TMS) as well as in the treatment of neuromuscular and bone trauma caused by accidents, sports injuries, as well as surgery. Also known as HIPEMF, HIES, HIEM, High-intensity pulsed electromagnetic field treatment has shown benefits for recovery, regeneration and healing various disorders in bones, cartilages and muscles, and also increases the levels of ATP in the body allowing the body to naturally heal itself.
