Shouldn’t it be the most comfortable temperature? 🤔

    Your body is generating heat constantly. It’s also attempting to keep the amount of heat created and the amount of heat lost about the same.

    As long as the temperature outside is significantly lower than your body’s temperature, it’s pretty easy. Until it gets too cold at least.

    When the temperature outside is close to your body temperature, then losing excess heat becomes more difficult. The higher the temperature climbs the more work your body has to do to shed excess heat, and at a certain temperature & humidity, losing excess heat becomes impossible through natural means alone. As it happens that temperature is pretty close to your body temperature at a certain humidity level.
