Weight is made up of water, fat and muscle tissue ….. A moderately conditioned person can easily sweat off 500 grams of sweat in a sauna, the equivalent of running three to four miles or 470-600 calories. While the weight of the water lost most probably will be regained by re-hydration with water, the calories will not be.

SWEAT THERAPY


Also, fat becomes water-soluble at 37.7 degrees Celsius can dissolve and enter the bloodstream to be removed from the body by sweat. Sweat therapy using saunas has been extensively researched and shown to be effective at lowering fat soluble chemicals.


In addition, the penetration of the infrared rays directly into the tissues of the body acts directly on the fatty cells, exciting them and assisting to break them up.

PURPOSE OF STUDY:To determine whether Infrared Sauna therapy improves blood vessel function in patient’s risk factors such as high cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes and smoking. This dysfunction represents an early stage of atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries).
HOW DID THEY DO IT? Studied 25 men with at least one risk factor. Patients were treated in an Infrared Sauna for 15 minutes once a day for 2 weeks.\\
RESULTS: Infrared Sauna Treatment
• Significantly lowered blood pressure
• Significant weight loss
• Significantly lowered blood sugar
• Significantly increased blood flow
• Lowered cholesterol
• Lowered triglycerides
CONCLUSION: Repeated Infrared Sauna treatment improves impaired blood vessel functions in patients with high blood pressure, diabetes, smoking and high cholesterol. This suggests a preventive role for sauna use for atherosclerosis.

In the prestigious Journal of the American Medical Association (August 1981)
“Many of us who run do so to place a demand on our cardiovascular system, not to build a big leg muscles. Regular use of a Sauna imparts a similar stress on the cardiovascular system, and its regular use may be an effective, a means of cardiovascular conditioning and burning of calories, as regular exercise.”
Your Healthstart sauna can play a pivotal role in both weight control and cardiovascular conditioning. This would be an easy way for those who don’t exercise and those who just can’t exercise, yet would like an effective weight control and fitness maintenance program with all the benefits that regular exercise and contribute to you life.
