Have you ever wondered why your hands shake when you’re nervous, or why your body violently shivers when you’re cold? While they might look similar, tremors and shivering are actually two very different physiological responses controlled by your brain and nervous system.

In this video, we break down the fascinating science behind why our bodies shake.

In this video, we cover:
🔹 The Difference: We explain the key distinction between shivering (a reflexive action to generate heat) and tremors (involuntary, rhythmic muscle contractions).
🔹 Common Causes of Shivering: Learn how your body fights hypothermia, why fevers cause the "chills," and the role of the hypothalamus.
