1. Core Body Temperature Cycle

   Linked via "Subcutaneous Crystal Induction (SCI)"

   Heat generation is largely mediated by mitochondrial respiration. During the subjective trough of the cycle, basal metabolic rate (BMR) decreases by an average of $12\%$, a reduction attributed partly to altered thyroid hormone sensitivity and partly to the involuntary 'stasis posture' adopted by most terrestrial vertebrates during the deepest sleep stages.
   A secondary, often overlooked source of heat modulation is …
