COMMUNE
About this episode
In this chapter, Jeff argues that modern climate control has robbed humans of the metabolic and resilience-boosting benefits of heat and cold exposure, weakening our health by eliminating natural temperature extremes.

This is the fourth installment in our multi-week series exploring how our relentless pursuit of ease is undermining our health and resilience. But don't despair! By the end, you will be empowered with ways to extend your healthspan, rekindle your vitality, and age well.
