Sauna Sessions: Sweating Your Way to a Supercharged Brain & Detox Boost
Manage episode 360549906 series 3453883
In this episode of The Modern Vital Podcast, Dr. Ben reebs discusses the benefits of traditional and far infrared sauna use. A Finnish study reveals that frequent sauna use can significantly reduce the risk of Alzheimer's disease, dementia, and cardiovascular events, while also improving cognitive function and overall brain health. Sauna use supports detoxification by upregulating the body's organs of elimination, including the liver, kidneys, and skin. Sweating during sauna sessions helps excrete more toxins, unclogs pores, and removes dead skin cells, leading to clearer, healthier skin.
Dr. Reebs suggests several practical tips for maximizing sauna benefits, including staying well-hydrated, dry brushing the skin before entering the sauna, and taking binders like activated charcoal or clay an hour after the session to help remove toxins. Finishing with a cold shower or plunge can further enhance detoxification, while pre-sauna exercise may increase circulation and promote sweating. Post-sauna, it's crucial to replenish electrolytes and essential nutrients lost through sweating.
