Tweetable Quotes “So what I would do is I would literally take with me a bucket and I would always have ice in there from the hotel with water and at the end of a race I would actually soak my hands in this icy cold water. And let me tell you, that really cooled down my body temperature.”(03:42) (Dr. Brian) “So, just remember that if you want to cool yourself down just run your hands or your wrists under cold water.”(04:11) (Dr. Brian) “The peppermint has no magical cooling abilities. It’s just refreshing. But literally you can drink just plain cold water. I mean you could even drink iced coffee and it will have the same effect. It’s the coldness of the beverage or the drink.”(05:19) (Dr. Brian) Resources Mentioned NCHS Links Mentioned NCHS Footer Powered by FullCast
