People's body temperature used to be higher a century ago, but I think it was less then 1°C.

EDIT: Apparently since the early 1800s, men's body temperature changed about 0.59°C and women's about 0.32°C.

That's really interesting. Does anyone know why?

I believe there's a theory that the average person had at least one source of inflammation in their body.
