When the body temperature rises we first rush to bring the thermometer. If seen, the temperature is 96.6 degrees Fahrenheit. Then we don't bother with this anymore. The temperature (96.8 degrees Fahrenheit) that we usually measure on a thermometer when measuring a fever is not normal.
According to a recent study by Stanford University's School of Medicine, we have not been able to retain the warmth of the nineteenth century at what our normal body temperature was 180 years or more ago. The normal body temperature has dropped from 0.03 degree Celsius to 0.29 degree Celsius. Temperatures have been reported to drop in both men and women. In the last 200 years, that normality has come down to 98.5 degrees Fahrenheit. Women's body temperature has also decreased. However, that rate is slightly lower than men. The average normal body temperature in women is now 96 degrees Fahrenheit.
Jule Pernet, a professor of medicine at the university, and her team examined 190,000 people. According to researchers, the reason for the drop in temperature may be human weight, lifestyle and improved treatment. In addition, the research paper also revealed that this decline in the average normal temperature of our body did not happen suddenly. It has come down step by step. From one decade to the next in terms of human birth-time. In a consistent manner. We did not see any exception in that series.
Normal body temperature
Body temperature is not the same for everyone and varies depending on gender, age and other factors. For normal adults, body temperature can range from 96 degrees to 99 degrees Fahrenheit. In the case of children, it is 98.9 to 100.4 degrees Celsius. Even our body temperature does not stay the same all the time. There are a number of things that can change your body temperature during the day - body exercises, time of day, what kind of food to eat, even for women, the temperature can change during the season.
