I always have cold feet and hands and I think that is because of decreased circulation of blood to the extremities of my body(hands and feet) but this is not our point, that is to medical and I don’t have any idea and I might say wrong things:)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The best way to keep your feet warm in a sleeping bag is to tuck a hot water bottle in your sleeping bag just under your feet. make sure the water you use is clean not mixed with anything cause that will decrease the specific heat capacity, which in result make it cool faster.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

But that doesn’t mean this is the only way you to warm your feet in your sleeping bag there are many ways, I have tried to list 5 of them in this article. Like if you don’t have access to hot water you can use other methods, other than the hot water bottle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But before we get to that I will try to explain why our feet get cold when we are in a sleeping bag or generally when we sleep in a cold place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When we are sleeping in cold places our body will cut the amount of blood that would normally go to our hands and feet which causes the vessels to constrict, which in result makes them cold and sometimes your feet may have a bluish color due to the lack of adequate blood.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

But what you have to know is that this is not a big deal and it happens a lot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
