It could be do to a poor diet, or smoking, but it could just be you're more sensitive to the cold than most people.

this is most likely to be one of two things... anaemia or Raynard's disease. either way you will need to speak to a doctor. anaemia is a blood disorder where there isn't enough oxygen in your blood, and you are often left feeling cold and / or breathless. it is however treatable and nothing to worry about when you have the correct medication Raynard's disease however isn't treatable but again isn't that serious (i know, i have it). Raynard's is where your circulation is poor and you are constantly cold, especially in your hands and feet. it is particularly bad during the winter months. some doctors may suggest acupuncture but other than this the only thing that helps is wrapping up warm.
also in either case taking iron suppliments and eating iron rich food will help as this is one of the things that the doctor will tell you to do, as both conditions i havve mentioned are due (partly) to a lack of iron. some good foods for iron are spinach and broccoli although all fruits and veggies are good.
hope this helps.

Do you take a multi-vitamin and eat right? If not, you could be deficient on iron. Make sure you are eating plenty of vegetables and a little meat (unless you are vegetarian). You might also have bad circulation, which can be helped by streching on a daily basis and getting plenty of exercise. Lastly, are you very thin? If so, your body fat might be too low. If so, try eating foods high in protein. If none of this helps, you should see your doctor.

Whether your constant chill is a result of poor circulation is something that cannot determined on line. Having a complete physical by a physician may be a good place to start..
Layering your clothes, limiting your time outside wear socks and drink warm fluids.

Poor blood circulation and anemia (low iron in blood)
can make you feel cold all the time.Check with you doctor to rule out anemia.If you have anemia, vitamins or iron
supplements will solve the problem for you.

Your blood might be thin & you might possibly have poor circulation. The best thing to do would be to go for a physical & make sure it's nothing serious. The doctor would be able to accurately diagnosis something like this & would be able to offer treatments that should help.

It could be that you have low blood pressure. If you are taking any prescriptions, some of them can make you cold all the time too.

You probably have low iron. Do you eat ice or chalk? You need to see a doctor the iron test is a simple finger stick. Low iron can be dangerous.
