"The conduction velocity for the fastest and slow conducting sensory fibres (temperature range 1 7-37°C), and for the fastest conducting motor fibres (temperature range 19-38°C) increased non-linearly with increase in skin temperature."

"Chronic treatment for 1 month with DHT or 3alpha-diol increased tail nerve conduction velocity and partially counteracted the increase of thermal threshold induced by diabetes. "


All of this reminds me of how Peat says metabolism is related to intelligence, and how substances that are thermogenic are pro-metabolic, and how being warmer in general is better for the metabolism.
