Can Heavy Metals Cause You To Be Overweight?

When your body is toxic, toxins hide and embed themselves in your body fat. This causes your cells and organs to become sluggish and lose efficiency. The more fat you have, the more toxins you can store. As your organs and body systems lose their ability to function properly, they lose their ability to metabolize and process fat effectively. This is one reason why some of you find it difficult to lose weight- your body is not functioning properly! Unfortunately we were never meant to handle this level of exposure and our systems are overwhelmed. The body is well equipped to clear toxins so detoxification is critical!

People are used to going into saunas, and may be extra comfy in an enclosure than in an open space. What is Infrared? Infrared is simply a sure frequency band of sunshine that’s invisible to the human eye. The heat from infrared is typically called Infrared Radiation (IR), very different from Ultraviolet Radiation, which can cause sunburn.
Many of the heat that warms the earth is IR from the sun, and IR is given off by the earth and even the human physique, so this is not a brand new, nor harmful phenomenon. Health Benefits Of Infrared The health benefits of conventional saunas embody alleviation of pain and stiffness from arthritis, and cleansing of the skin by induced heavy sweating. As well as, the steam of conventional saunas can help relieve respiratory problems such as congestion and bronchitis. (more…)

According to many health professionals, the benefits of regular sauna use are widespread, and include: strengthened immune system, improved blood circulation, enhanced detoxification processes, deep skin cleansing and rejuvenation and tension and stress relief. During a sauna, blood flow to the skin increases to as high as 50 to70 percent of cardiac output. This figure is usually around 5 to 10 percent. This brings nutrients to subcutaneous and surface tissue resulting in glowing healthy skin. Profuse sweating has been shown to enhance the detoxifying ability of the skin by opening pores and flushing impurities from the body.

When you are exposed to the high heat of a sauna it creates an artificial fever state within your body. Fever is part of the body’s natural healing process. Fever stimulates the immune system which results in increased production of disease fighting white blood cells and other antibodies.

Perhaps the greatest benefit sauna users can expect is the impact they have on the heart. The heart benefits of regular sauna use have been studied and proven through medical studies. One study published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology tested sauna therapy on a group of people with risk factors for coronary disease such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, and smoking. The subjects of the study used a sauna daily, and in only two weeks, doctors noticed improved blood vessel function of 40 percent. The end result of the study was that even people who currently suffered from heart disease or severely blocked arteries realized great benefit from regular sauna therapy.

The ways in which saunas benefit the most important muscle in your body are varied. During a 10-20 minute sauna session, your heart rate increases by 50 to 75 percent. Sitting in a sauna generally gives you the same kind of benefit you would receive from a brisk walk. Through exercise, the blood vessels relax and heart function improves. This process is called vasodilatation and it improves the way the heart pumps blood to the rest of the body. This can have an effect on blood pressure and other coronary risk factors. If you’ve experienced any heart problems or your family has a history of coronary risk, a sauna is definitely a worthwhile investment commonly recommended by doctors and cardiologists. (more…)

Historical documentation shows that around 2000 years ago, the Finnish were avid users of the sauna. They were a primitive sauna that consisted of pits in the ground where people sat during the cold winters for warmth. There was a fireplace where stones were placed and then heated until they were red hot. People would sit naked and relax in the heat. They were also used as a type of bathing method. It was not until the 19th century that more advanced saunas were built in Finland. These advance saunas had wooden log walls, a roof, and a door. Originally known as Savusauna (smoke sauna), they produced smoke which escaped through vents and thereby did not harm sauna users. Although difficult to clean and a potential risk of fire, these ground smoke saunas were the foundation for future saunas. These saunas were also used as a place to give birth and care for the sick. Eventually, sauna users began drizzling water over the stones which caused steamed to be produced.

In late 1800’s, another type of sauna was developed. With this type of sauna, a metal top covered the stones and it was affixed to a chimney where the smoke was dispersed outdoors. The temperature of the sauna was controlled by closing and opening a small door. As well, the amount of rocks used and the intensity of the fire helped control the temperature. The benefits of using this type of sauna became widely known with many being installed on the property of homeowners. By late 1920’s, urban areas began building saunas for the community to use. World War II saw an even bigger increase in the construction of saunas.  (more…)

Saunas go back many years, and several cultures have used them. Today, there are people still loving the affects and benefits of them. Infrared saunas and the traditional type of stones heated over rocks is in a heated competition for first place on the retail market. Each one offers healing relief from many illnesses, both acute and chronic. Depending on what relief is needed, will mean a different choice of sauna.

Depending on personal preference, and maybe health issues, it might not be possible to use the traditional sauna. Infrared is different in that it will heat your body first, and then the enclosed space around you. There is not a sweating issue with using the infrared, and this makes it a unique type of therapy for many diseases and illnesses.

Saunas have been around for hundreds of years because of the therapeutic and health benefits that they give to people from various cultures. The popularity of saunas today is growing and this is directly related to technological advances, specifically the development of the infrared sauna. There is a school of thought that disagrees with the use of the infrared sauna and proclaims that the traditional sauna is better.

Let us take a look at how the two types of saunas work and what benefits each has to offer. For the infrared sauna, the advantage is for those who do not want to sweat profusely. The infrared equipment warms the air inside the sauna and will not cause extreme high temperatures and humidity. One does not have to sweat as much as when he is using a traditional hot stone sauna. In addition, infrared saunas are known to get rid of certain health problems like bronchitis, eczema, and acne. People who want to get rid of excess pounds and cellulite will benefit from having infrared sauna treatments.

The traditional hot stone sauna also gives similar effects as infrared saunas. Because one sweats a lot when in a hot stone sauna, the body releases toxins and burns fat deposits. The same effect is achieved when one does exercises, blood is also cleaned from impurities and are flushed out. (more…)

If you are a regular user of saunas you would definitely know it a great way to relax and unwind. We all are familiar with the numerous benefits received by using saunas; however researchers have gone a step ahead in proving this fact.

The health benefits attained from using an infrared sauna are incredible. Since traditional saunas function by heating the surrounding air, it could be very humid and is not suitable for people who suffer from respiratory disorders. An infrared sauna uses infrared rays to heat the body directly and is therefore more comfortable than the traditional sauna. The energy released from infrared saunas accelerates blood supply thereby pumping oxygen rich blood to all muscles, tissues and organs. The increased blood supply helps in transporting all essential nutrients to the right body organs. Infra red saunas have also been known for stimulating the heart beat and therefore provide the same benefit as that of a brisk walk. As the infrared sauna warms the body, it also creates a fever like state which helps in boosting the immune system. A robust immune system makes it easier to combat with illnesses. Another benefit of the infrared sauna is that it warms up much faster than conventional saunas, thereby saving precious time and money.

In contrast to traditional saunas an infrared sauna directly warms the body, allowing deeper penetration of the skin. This experience helps the body flush out unwanted waste and cleanses the skin giving it a radiant look. The infrared sauna is a safe mode of relaxation and can be used by people of all ages even those who are physically unfit. Infrared saunas are economical as they warm up quickly and are easy to install, thereby leading to a low operational cost. (more…)

First let us tackle the difference between a traditional and infrared sauna. This will pave the way for further understanding the advantages you can get from the latter. Basically, their main difference has something to do with heat source.

Traditional saunas, as you may already know, is a small room that is heated. Many health clubs and gyms offer such service to their patrons. The source of the heat, a heater, sits somewhere in the room. Depending on kind of traditional sauna, it may be powered by electricity, wood or any other source of energy.

Infrared saunas, on the other hand, use lamps. And as its very name suggests, these lamps give off infrared light as the main source of heat. Some may emit near infrared, middle infrared or far infrared - all depending on the technology used. In a way, it’’s basically like harnessing the same energy source as sunlight.

The very first thing people will notice about infrared saunas is that the rooms are cooler than those of traditional ones. But don”t let it fool you: you will still experience profuse sweating. Again, this is because of the heat source used. It doesn”t do much to heat the room, but it deeply penetrates your skin. So you are heated from inside out.

It’’s evident that traditional saunas bring many benefits to the body. But because of the way your body is heated up in infrared saunas, all these benefits are magnified. What you will be experiencing from multiple traditional sauna sessions may be obtained with just a few infrared sauna sessions. (more…)
