No one exemplifies this better than Wim Hof, whose remarkable ability to control his body temperature in extreme cold has sparked a whirlwind of scientific study. Through him, we are just beginning to understand how cold adaptation might combat autoimmune diseases and chronic pain — and possibly even reverse the development of one of our greatest killers: diabetes.

Speaking exclusively to MailOnline owner Mikael Lindnord said: ‘Arthur loves snow and can´t get enough of it. The first time he saw snow he just ran out and rolled around in it and he has been doing that ever since.
‘His fur has gotten much thicker since he came here and he actually did not like the heat during the summer.
‘When I was out running or walking with him he always wanted to go for a swim in the ice cold lake we have nearby.
‘It is like he has lived up here in the north his entire life, even though he grew up in the warm rain forest of Ecuador.
‘I think Arthur was meant to be here in Sweden.’
Mikael first spotted the golden-furred hound out of the corner of his eye as his team took a meal break during the epic 430-mile Adventure Racing World Championship through the Amazon jungle in Ecuador last year.
Feeling sorry for the miserable-looking stray he shared his tin of Swedish meatballs – creating a bond that a four-month quarantine and the stress of tough bureaucratic red tape to get the dog into Europe, could not break.
Bond: Arthur, as the team dubbed him, never left their side after that - and ended up travelling to Sweden to live with team member Mikael Lindnord, his wife Helena and daughter Philippa

Part of the family: It is like Arthur has lived in the frozen north all his life, Mikael told MailOnline
As four-member Peak Performance team continued the gruelling endurance race, the dog – which they later named Arthur – tagged along.
He swam alongside when they kayaked down rivers, he dragged himself up hills during climbs and pulled himself through knee-deep mud during treks.

By the time the stray crossed the finished line with the team Mikael had vowed to rescue the dog from a brutal life on the streets and Arthur had been branded a hero, winning hearts around the world.
Now renowned as Sweden’s most famous dog Arthur has settled in admirably with Mikael, his wife Helena and their two young children at their home in Örnsköldsvik, some five-hours north of the capital Stockholm. The dog was released from four-months quarantine in March this year.
Mikael, 39, told MailOnline: ‘Arthur bet his whole life on us. He bet everything to go with us through the jungle.
‘So I bet on him and I have been very lucky – he’s the sweetest dog in the world.
‘It has been a tumultuous ride.
‘From the moment he went with us in the jungle, to the trip home [to Sweden] and four months in quarantine, several operations and now he has become part of my family.
‘We have gone through many phases of life together in a short period and we have become very close.’

Worried: At one point, the team tried to get rid of Arthur, concerned for his safety. But he would not be deterred
Mikael added: ‘When he came to Sweden we thought we would have teach Arthur how to behave in the house.
‘But he adapted from day one and is a very well-mannered dog who knows what’s right and wrong. He does not sit by the table waiting for us to give him food when we are eating dinner.

‘We don´t mind of course. Burger shop full version free download android. It is probably his biggest luxury in life to be able to just calmly lay down in a warm house without having people beating him and telling him to go away.’
Riddled with infection, fleas, battered and bruised Arthur was in a terrible state from living on the street when he befriended Mikael and his team mates.
But he is now flourishing from the love and care he received.
‘Arthur is in great shape now, at the top of his game actually,’ Mikael revealed. ‘He is very fast and has loads of muscles.
‘We took him in to have a tooth root canal fixed a few months ago, but apart from that everything is great and he seems to enjoy life in every sense. Upload mp3 to youtube mac download.
‘I don´t know how his previous life has affected him and his health, that is something we just have to wait and see and prey that he lives a long and happy life.'
Decisions: By the end of the race, Mikael knew he could not leave him behind - very aware that the average life expectancy of the 150,000 or so stray dogs in the Ecuadoran capital Quito is just three years
Separation: But to bring the dog Arthur endures four-months quarantine to satisfy Sweden's tough rules in importing dogs, which meant the family were not reunited with their newest member until March this year
Mikael added: ‘In the Ecuadoran capital Quito, where 150,000 stray dogs live, the average life expectancy for dogs is three years.
‘Based on that and that he has lived in Sweden for a year I guess he is three or four years old. He would not have lived much longer if he stayed in Ecuador.’
By contrast Arthur can run for hours at a time and has participated in some races.
‘Arthur loves running,’ Mikael explain. ‘When I put on my shoes and prepare to go out for a run, Arthur stands in the hallway jumping and anxiously waiting to get out.
‘I usually unleash him when we reach the forest we have just around the corner from where we live.
‘Then he runs off and is always ahead of me on the paths. A two hour-run is nothing for Arthur.
‘Every time he meets my team mates he greets them with love.
‘They are also a part of his family after our rigours in Ecuador last year. He is basically a member of the team, one of us and will always be a part of our group.’
Excitement: The Lindnords brought him to their home in Örnsköldsvik, some five-hours north of the capital Stockholm, where the stray has gone from strength to strength
Racing: The two still take part in races and go running together - but with his new thick and healthy coat Arthur sometimes gets over-hot, and needs to take a dip in the nearest lake https://cleverroad848.weebly.com/soul-calibur-iv-ps3-download-torrent.html.
He added: ‘There was a charity race this summer where we ran around 20km. When the race started Arthur ran off ahead. He was determined to be the first one to cross the line and I struggled to keep up with him.
‘My team also arranged a swim-run where I live here in Örnsköldsvik. We brought Arthur when we tested out the race-course. He enjoyed swimming for around 30-40 metres before he decided that it was not funny anymore and placed himself on my back instead.’
A simple soul Arthur does not have any toys but enjoys playing with Mikael’s two-and-a-half year old daughter Philippa, and a terrier called Ludde.
Mikael explained: ‘Arthur does not really enjoy toys. He likes to play with my daughter, running, eating and sleeping.
‘He enjoys a nice and crispy pan seared chicken breast. I know that I spoil him. But I like him so much and just want to make him happy.
‘And he loves playing around with other dogs, especially our neighbour’s dog, a small terrier called “Ludde”.
‘I thought Arthur was going to have a problem with other dogs due to his background as a stray dog, but it is the total opposite, he loves to be in the company of other dogs.’
