  • Think you lose most of your body heat through your head?

    Well, not really! The myth that we lose 40-50% of body heat through our heads comes from an old military experiment where soldiers were bundled up—except for their heads. Naturally, most heat escaped from the only exposed area. In reality, heat loss depends on what’s uncovered, so if you go outside in the cold wearing just a t-shirt but a warm hat, your arms and torso will lose more heat than your head! So yes, hats help, but don’t skip the jacket. Want more cool facts? Stick around for the next episode of Trivia Tidbits!
