News from The Discovery Channel: “Treatments for depression range from medicines that can come with scary side effects to electric shock therapy, but a new paper suggests a simple cold shower might sometimes cure, and even prevent, the debilitating mood disorder.” Now I understand why I always feel so uplifted and, well, happy, after my morning cold shower gush. If you want to read more, here is the link to the full article. Cold showers also have other health benefits, as noted here.

PS Michael Phelps says he eats 12,000 calores a day? How is this possible? is he lying? In competition an athlete can burn 800 calories/hour. He spends just 4 hours on the pool 4*800= 3,200.....Howcome he does not get fat? Cold expusure burns a lot of calories. Cold Showers, sleeping with no cover in bed and air conditioning can help to lose weight.
