The Weird Thing About Body Temperature!
Here's a question for you - if you're healthy, what temperature is your body?
Did you say 37 (or 98.6) degrees? Congratulations, you're kinda right! But also... kinda wrong...
It turns out body temperature varies whether you're male or female, whether you're menstruating or not, whether you measure in the mouth or the ear or the forehead or the anus, or even - and here's the strange part - what decade you live in...
Rod tells Will the story of body temperature!
The Wholesome Show is Dr Rod Lamberts and Dr Will Grant, proudly brought to you by the Australian National Centre for the Public Awareness of Science!
