Critics of cold plunge therapy fail to acknowledge the metabolic and sex hormone benefits of cold exposure. This lecture to Wim Hof certified instructors explains the science of ice baths for management of sexual and reproductive health.

Cold exposure stimulates production of testosterone in women, but men must exercise after an ice bath to get a testosterone boost.

Case studies demonstrate how proper use of ice baths can increase testosterone thru mitochondrial mechanisms of steroidogenesis. Follow these protocols to boost sex hormone levels without drugs.

Ice baths help restore mitochondrial function to boost testosterone levels in women, thus improving sex health.

Low testosterone is associated with poor mitochondrial function, because all testosterone synthesis is initiated inside the mitochondria.

Boosting testosterone with cold water therapy & exercise will not increase prostate cancer risks.

A partner cold plunge creates the same brain chemistry as falling in love. Could cold water immersion be better than marriage counseling?

Mutzel & Seager explain how cold water therapy maintains healthy testosterone, relieves stress, & promotes metabolic well-being.

Ice baths boost male sexual performance by resolving the metabolic disorders underlying erectile dysfunction.

Czech Army soldiers experienced greater sexual & life satisfaction after adopting a practice of freezing cold water immersion & exercise.

Deliberate cold exposure can correct metabolic disorders and help restore sexual function and fertility.

Precooling with an ice bath prior to exercise will boost performance and speed recovery by strengthening vagal drive & boosting HRV.

Ice baths lowered Dr. Seager's prostate specific antigen (PSA) levels. Exercising afterwards increased his testosterone.
