Did You Know Nose Temperature Affects Rate Of Infection!!






Yes you heard it right. Apart from room temperature there is something called nose temperature.
Here it is. Your nose gets warm by preventing the cold air entering inside that also avoids your nose to be cold. This in turn keeps infection at bay. As a new Research says that infection is prone to attack only if your nose is cold.

What happens is the immunity weakens in cooler temperature or cold nose which is why the virus gets an opportunity to make its home and replicate increasing the infection

This also means that lowers the temperature, lower the resistance to fight against infection.
Why the Rhinovirus attacks the Nose? The reason could be that the cells in the mucous of the nose are relatively cooler than other parts of the body. 

So the conclusion is that cold nose attracts infection.
