Sweating is the body’s safe and natural way to heal, stay healthy, and detox
|
Sweat carries toxins out of the body
and pushes
it through the pores. |
|
Sweating
helps the body release heat and keeps your
internal core temperature as consistent as
needed. |
|
The average person has 2.6 million sweat glands. Sweat glands are distributed over the majority of the human body. |
|
Skin is the largest
organ in the body and it plays a significant
part in the detox process. |
Detox from a Sunlight Sauna is 7 to 10 times greater
than a conventional sauna
because it operates
more effectively at temperatures 60 to 80 degrees
lower than conventional saunas.
In a Sunlight Sauna, the average person sweats out 20% toxins and 80% water!
In a conventional sauna the average person sweats out 3% toxins and 97% water.
Far-Infrared Technologies that Harness the Sun, Valerie Free
“The most important breakthrough today for detox and health is to do daily far infrared saunas. Heat therapy is probably the most important avenue for detox for abundant health today.”

What is Detox?
|
Detox can be used as a tool to help relieve symptoms AND as a preventative tool to increase overall health, vitality, and resistance to disease. |
|
Detox is a widely used treatment and concept in alternative medicine. The leading detox principle is that illnesses can be caused by the build-up of toxic substances – or toxins - in the body. |
Why Detoxify?
Detox can be helpful for people suffering from
diseases and conditions, including:
|
Allergies |

Depression |

Low blood sugar |

|
|
|
|

Detox therapy is also useful for those suffering
from immune system problems that include chronic fatigue syndrome, environmental illness/multiple chemical sensitivity,
and fibromyalgia.
The United States Centers for Disease Control estimate
that over 80% of all illnesses have environmental and
lifestyle causes.
Therefore, detox has also become a prominent treatment as people have become more aware of environmental pollution.
For example, it is estimated that one in every four
Americans suffers from some level of heavy
metal poisoning, including mercury, lead, cadmium
and aluminum.
Toxins in the body also include chemical pollutants
such as pesticides, DDT, PCB (polychlorinated biphenyls)
and food additives. Drugs and alcohol also have toxic
effects in the body.
