An attempt has been made to estimate human body heat conductivity (BHC) in population. Calorimetric method of measuring heat conductivity in solids known in thermo physics has been modified for this purpose. Results obtained show that individuals in population substantially differ from each other in BHC. It is assumed that cell thermoregulation which is determined by density of peripheral layer of condensed chromatin (CC) around cell nucleus underlie various human BHC. The density of peripheral layer of CC depends on amount of chromosomal Qheterochromatin regions (Q-HRs) in human genome. Since the amount of chromosomal Q-HRs in human population genome is usually determined by climatic and geographical conditions of permanent residence and not their ethnic and racial peculiarities, a hypothesis that human BHC is possibly connected with its adaptability to different environmental thermal conditions has been put forward. The question of place and possible role of human BHC in norm and pathology is also being discussed
