Toma Rin Says Sleep, Baths and Diet Raised Her Average Body Temperature by About a Degree

In a weekday-morning chat before her 9 a.m. day job, she also described soundproofing limits at home and a plan to test a quiet singing stream.

Toma Rin said on Tuesday morning that her average body temperature has risen by about one degree Celsius after she changed her sleep, bathing and eating habits. She said it used to sit around 35.6 to 35.8 degrees, around the time she debuted with Marinas, and now runs about 36.5 to 36.8. She said exercise was not the reason, since she had always exercised.

She listed what she changed: sleeping about seven hours instead of the five she got as a student, soaking in the bath with bath salts rather than skipping it, and rethinking her meals. On blood sugar, she suggested a spoonful of olive oil in the rice pot and three or four almonds about 30 minutes before eating. She also recommended seaweed and mushrooms, and described wakame shabu-shabu dipped in a ponzu and sesame oil sauce. She urged viewers to get regular checkups, adding that she herself dislikes hospitals.

“It’s better not to have just one pillar. If one breaks, your heart breaks. Keep two or three.” — Toma Rin, passing on advice about sources of emotional support

Her own cat had been in for tests, she said. The results pointed to a possible kidney problem, a risk she noted is common in Persians, and further tests were still under way. “I’m worried,” she said.

She also talked about her home setup. She lives with her family, she said, and her mother had told her that her voice carried at night. Marinas was never meant to involve personal channels, she said, so a soundproof room was never part of the plan. She said she expects her streaming environment to improve in a couple of months, and that she wants to try a calm, quiet singing stream as a test. Earlier she had opened the chat with a story about winning a half-price supermarket sushi platter.

She passed along advice from a senior colleague about not relying on a single source of emotional support, which drew the chat reply “A pillar for the heart! That’s deep.” The stream drew two Super Chats. Rin signed off at 9 a.m. to go to work, saying the Marinas channel has a stream planned for Oct. 29 and that she hopes to hold one on her own channel on Oct. 30 or 31.
