At this point, there's really no telling just how many toxic elements may be excreted via your sweat, but the research is poin ng to many. In yet another study to look at the role of swea ng as a form of toxics elimina on, it was found that many toxic elements were preferen ally excreted through sweat. Those researchers also concluded: "Presumably stored in ssues, some toxic elements readily iden fied in the perspira on of some par cipants were not found in their serum. Induced swea ng appears to be a poten al method for elimina on of many toxic elements from the human body. Biomonitoring for toxic elements through blood and/or urine tes ng may underes mate the total body burden of such toxicants. Sweat analysis should be considered as an addi onal method for monitoring bioaccumula on of toxic elements in humans." Interes ngly, profuse swea ng can actually help decrease body odor. Foul body odor is related to the toxins being expelled – it's not your "natural" scent. If you're living a "clean" lifestyle, meaning a lifestyle in which you're minimally exposed to dietary and environmental toxins and therefore have a low toxic burden, your sweat will be close to odorless. How to Safely Sweat More Virtually any type of intense exercise will prompt you to sweat, although doing so in warm weather (or in a heated room, such as in Bikram yoga) will create even more swea ng. You can also induce swea ng via a sauna, either tradi onal or infrared. Infrared saunas are a great op on and can significantly expedite the detoxifica on process. It heats your ssues several inches deep, which can enhance your natural metabolic processes. It also enhances circula on and helps oxygenate your ssues. The difference between an infrared sauna and the tradi onal Finnish-style saunas is that the la er heats you up from the outside in, like an oven. The infrared sauna heats you from the inside out, raising your body's core temperature and resul ng in a deeper, more cleansing sweat. It's said that using an infrared sauna will cause you to produce a sweat that is composed of 20 percent toxins, compared to only 3 percent toxins by using a tradi onal sauna. Keep in mind that swea ng, especially heavy swea ng, will cause your body to lose valuable fluids and electrolytes. Be sure to stay well hydrated if you've been swea ng heavily and replace your electrolytes naturally by drinking coconut water or water mixed with Himalayan salt. You can mix a quarter teaspoon of Himalayan salt with a gallon of pure filtered water.
