What, you can't read a couple of paragraphs to get to the bits you want?
Ooh, maybe you could Google homeostasis? How's that for a radical idea?
Here, I'll help:

Food.
Where else do you think we get our energy from?
Or even, if you'd bothered following any links:
(From the homeostasis link.

Food is not hot. Oh, hot food will cool off...i dont know what that was supposed to mean...food.
The liver is hot?
Muscle contraction? I dont know but my muscles are not contracting enough to cause a steady 98 degree temerature. Or am i wrong here?
So you are saying that food feeds the energy source that keeps the body so warm?
So if you are hungry the body temperature goes down?
Metabolism. The (bio)chemical reactions that take place in the body.
Metabolism?
So you think that produces near 100 degrees? And if you go outside and it is 20 degrees you body says 98 degrees. Are you saying that metabolism keeps the body warm in 20 degree weather?
I read about metabolism, where does it say it produces 100 degree heat?
Does the body stay at normal temperature in 20 degree air?
Nope - it loses heat faster than it's produced.
What's body temp? What else causes it?
For someone who has claimed (more than once) to be knowledgeable on medicine and biology you're not doing too well.
As far as i know my body stays around 98 degrees in 20 degree weather. Where is the heat source?
For how long before hypothermia starts to begin?
Er, do you wear clothes in that temperature?
Maybe more clothes than you would in warmer weather?
Already given.
Wow wisdom (Dywyddyr's) did not understand you question :shrug:
