Hi Betsy--How do you measure core body temperature I wonder? In a really nice hot bath at home, where I can get totally submerged (except the head of course), I can easily and quickly raise my temp., taken with a regular old mercury thermometer, to 103 degrees or so. Indeed, this has been my first line of defense for years when a cold/flu is coming on. Sometimes this is enough to knock it right out and other times the induced fever continues on, as if it needed a jump start. But I can say that after avoiding suppression for about 30 years now, my system can almost always still produce a good fever when I need one.

My understanding is that tumor formation is a sort of 'cold' process and that people with tendencies towards the inflammatory (warm) pole are more likely to develop conditions like heart disease while those who tend towards the sclerotic (cold) pole are susceptible to cancer and other tumor conditions. Finding a balance is the key of course, and I'd think that using saunas etc. to raise the temperature is most useful in prevention and only one aspect of recovery from cancer.

My 2 cents,
Deborah
