Abstract in brief

Cold water therapy is a promising lifestyle strategy that can promote healthy aging by improving cardiovascular and mental health, boosting immunity, and reducing inflammation.
Research indicates that exposure to cold water can activate biological processes such as energy expenditure, brown fat activation, and hormone release, which may help reduce risks related to cardiometabolic diseases and improve mood.
Despite its potential, more scientific studies are needed to determine the optimal duration and temperature for maximum health benefits, though current evidence suggests that short-term, lower-temperature exposures could be particularly effective.]
