In summer, many people can't wait to hide in the "air-conditioned room" every day, which leads to the fact that summer is supposed to be the season of sweating, but you can't sweat it!

Some people even wear antiperspirant and other products when they go out to prevent sweat from getting their clothes wet.

In fact, these practices completely violate the physiological laws of the human body, and it is also wrong to spend all your energy to keep yourself from sweating.

If you sweat less in summer, colds, arthritis, insomnia will come to you, and the incidence of chronic diseases such as high blood pressure will double...

Sweating more in summer is the healthiest.

10 amazing benefits of sweating:

1 ,Detox and anti-cancer

Sweating is the best way to detoxify and prevent cancer, so maybe you still don't believe it.

Research data shows that sweat is one of the ways to discharge harmful substances such as arsenic, cadmium, lead, and mercury from the body.

For example, few marathon runners get cancer because the main culprits of cancers such as lead, mercury, and arsenic in their bodies are excreted through sweating.

A marathon runner's sweat during running contains 20 times more lead than a normal person.

It is not enough for us to drink water to detoxify. It can be seen that sweating is very helpful for removing toxins and preventing cancer.

2,Emollient skin care

Sweat can remove toxins that clog pores and eliminate acne and pimples on the skin.

Many people often have acne, such as on the face and back, which is caused by the clogging of the pores due to unclean skin pores.

It’s better to exercise more in summer and sweat a little. You immediately feel that your skin has become firmer, smoother, shiny, and your acne will be reduced.

3 ,Lose weight and prevent chronic diseases

In addition, sweating can also consume excess energy in the body, help promote the decomposition of fat, and have a certain weight loss effect.

With less fat in the body and blood vessels, chronic diseases such as high blood pressure and hyperlipidemia and heart-deficiency tube diseases will also be reduced and improved.

In summer, the cells will be more active. At this time, strengthen exercise and scientific perspiration, the effect is several times that of usual, which is more conducive to weight loss, improve physical condition, and prevent chronic diseases such as "three highs".

4 ,Improve immunity

There is another amazing benefit of sweating more in summer, which is to improve the body's immunity.

Many people often eat some health products in order to improve their immunity. The ingredients in some health products are unknown, and some health products contain hormones, but they suppress the immune system.

The best way is to sweat through science.

Studies have found that the antibacterial peptides contained in sweat can effectively resist viruses, bacteria and fungi; sweating can effectively enhance one's own immunity and improve antibacterial and antiviral capabilities.

For example, if you exercise for 30-45 minutes a day, your body will sweat slightly, 5 days a week, and if you persist for a long time, your immunity will be strengthened.

5 ,boost digestion

In summer, there is often no appetite and no digestion. At this time, the best way to promote digestion is to sweat through exercise.

Because sweating speeds up the metabolism of the entire body, helps intestinal peristalsis, and improves digestion.

Especially for people with constipation, sweating through exercise is also very helpful for alleviating constipation.

6 ,Enhance memory

Sweating also keeps body cells in a vigorous state, maintains mental focus, enhances memory, and makes the brain more vigorous.

In addition, studies have confirmed that exercise sweating has a positive effect on the brain, which can greatly improve people's memory and concentration.

7 ,Stabilize blood pressure

Exercising and sweating help expand capillaries, accelerate blood circulation, and increase the elasticity of blood vessel walls, thereby lowering blood pressure.

At the same time, exercise sweating speeds up blood circulation and helps regulate the digestive system and nervous system.

Therefore, in addition to diet control to prevent high blood pressure, sweating is the best way to recuperate.

8 ,Protect bones

We all know that many people are prone to osteoporosis when they get older because of the loss of calcium in the body.

So how to effectively prevent the loss of calcium?

A simple and effective way is to sweat during exercise. Sweating is conducive to the effective retention of calcium, prevents the calcium in the body from being excreted in the urine, and prevents osteoporosis.

9 ,Prevent stones

The formation of stones is mainly formed by the crystallization and deposition of inorganic salts such as magnesium phosphate in the body.

And sweating can effectively discharge salt from the body and retain calcium in the bones.

This physiological process can limit the accumulation of salt and calcium in the kidneys and urine, which is the source of stones.

It is no coincidence that people who sweat more will drink more water, which also prevents the formation of stones.

10 ,Prevent colds

Sweating actually helps fight tuberculosis bacteria and other dangerous pathogens.

The antibacterial peptide contained in sweat can effectively resist viruses, bacteria and fungi. It can enter the cell membrane of bacteria and decompose them.

Research results published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences in 2013 show that:

Dermal protein is very effective against tuberculosis bacteria and other bacteria.

This natural substance is more effective than antibiotics. Peel protein, a natural antibiotic, can be naturally activated in slightly acidic sweat.

11 ,How to sweat properly

There are two ways of human sweating: active sweating and passive sweating.

Active sweating: Active sweating is mainly achieved by exercise, which will accelerate the body's metabolism and promote energy consumption. For example, walking, jogging, etc.

Passive sweating:

Passive sweating promotes the human body to sweat through a thermal environment. This way of sweating consumes less and is suitable for people who are not suitable for exercise. For example, foot bath, sweating, sauna, etc.

Sweating in summer is a natural health care method given to us by God. When we need to sweat, we should not sweat, and medical expenses will cost tens of millions.
