The human body regulates temperature through a negative feedback loop: (1) sensors detect when body temperature drops below 37°C (98.6°F), (2) the brain receives the signal, (3) the brain activates muscles to shiver and blood vessels to constrict to generate and conserve heat, (4) the system shuts off once the temperature returns to normal.
