If the body were too hot, we would have to eat continuously to maintain our metabolism.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Since time immemorial, scientists have wondered why mammals have such warm bodies compared to other animals. Bacteria that can thrive in the body and infect the body are weakened by 6% with each degree rise in temperature. So we know that we need a higher body temperature to fight off infections, the question is how warm can it be?<\/p>\n<p>Using mathematical calculations, scientists analysed the benefits of increased body temperature to fight off infections against the calorie consumption needed to maintain body temperature between 30 and 40 degrees. The optimal body temperature with the most effective defence against infection with minimal calorie consumption was 36.7 degrees.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wissenschaftler haben den Grund gefunden, warum, der menschliche K\u00f6rper konstant eine K\u00f6rpertemperatur von 37 Grad Celsius erh\u00e4lt. 37 Grad entspricht dem optimalen Gleichgewicht: der K\u00f6rper ist warm genug, um Infektionen vorzubeugen, jedoch k\u00fchl genug, dass der Stoffwechsel nicht auf Hochtouren arbeiten muss.
