3 Ways To Maximise Sauna Health Benefits | Infrared Sauna | Heart Health | Andrew Huberman
Andrew talks about how to maximize the health benefits of #sauna 🥵 depending on your goals. There are 3 ways to do this including 1) increasing growth hormone release, 2) reducing mortality ⛑️, and 3) using infrared saunas that have special benefits. 💥
0:03 – Increase growth hormone release
It helps with increasing your metabolism, fat loss, and recovery after a tough exercise or martial art session 🥷. You should do it no more than once a week for 30 minutes with a 5-10 minute cooling down period. And remember, no cold exposure during the break. Repeat this 4 rounds, but make sure you're safe!
0:52 – Reduce mortality
If you want to reduce the likelihood of dying due to cardiovascular-related events 🫀 such as stroke go regularly to the sauna. If you go twice a week, you’ll reduce it by 27%. But if you go at least 4 times, the likelihood of dying will decrease by 50%.
2:04 – How hot should a sauna be and why?
2:59 – Benefits of infrared sauna
It's good for skin issues, recovery, and sperm increase.

so there are three ways you can do sauna that i can just toss out as like brief things if you want to get a really big growth hormone release for sake of metabolism fat loss you're training really really hard in jiu jitsu and you want to recover you don't want a sauna too often because the study that identified this massive 16-fold increase in growth hormone they had people do this it's crazy they got into okay temperatures are 80 to 100 degrees centigrade so that's 176 degrees fahrenheit to 212 degrees fahrenheit for 5 to 30 minutes is the typical ranges that people work in in these research studies for maximum growth hormone release don't do sauna more than once a week but get into the sauna for 30 minutes as hot as you can safely tolerate then get out for five to ten minutes no cold exposure get back in the sauna for 30 minutes then they had them do it again out for five minutes back for 30 minutes out for five minutes back for three minutes they had them do two hours of sauna exposure to get that growth hormone release now for the reduction in likelihood of dying of a cardiovascular event stroke or otherwise the more often you do sauna the better so if you look at all cause mortality or death due to cardiovascular events and you look at sauna use frequency using the same parameters 80 to 100 degrees centigrade one to seven times per week basically the more often you get into the sauna for 30 minutes across the weeks of 30 minutes a day is better than four times a week four times a week is better than two times a week and two times a week is better than one and the reductions in mortality are really impressive if you get into a sauna the way i just described not the two hours a day but 30 minutes twice a week or three times per week you reduce the likelihood of dying of a cardiovascular event by 27 if you do it four or more times per week you reduce the probability of dying by 50 of a cardiovascular event and in these studies they rule out other things that people are doing smoking they even ask them do you live in an apartment are you in a happy relationship they evaluate other potentially confounding variables now for people that don't have access to a sauna a hot water bath or hot tub is going to be your next best bet and if you don't have access to that do like the wrestlers do which is you know put on two sets of uh sweats and a hoodie and a stocking cap and wrap yourself in plastics underneath all that and go for a run but please nobody die of hypothermia i mean you can die of warming up too much with the sauna it's how hot to make it well don't kill yourself obviously be smart if you're pregnant you shouldn't be doing this anyway but it's very clear that what you need is the release of something called dinorphin we have endorphin which makes us feel good it binds to these mu opioid receptors in the body you have dynorphin which is the terrible feeling that you get when you're in really hot temperatures it's also the terrible effect that alcoholics feel when they are in withdrawal you feel agitated you want to get out it's really unpleasant it's dinorphin binding to the so-called kappa opioid receptor is that's what you're trying to trigger when you do that a number of things happen you set off heat shock proteins that go repair broken proteins and misfolded proteins it also makes it so that later endorphin binds its receptor more strongly so when you have this uncomfortable experience in the heat you literally feel better in real life when pleasurable vents come on when you experience them you want to be uncomfortable in the heat this is why i'm not a big fan of infrared saunas because they only go up to about 160 170 degrees infrared light and far red light of all kinds has been shown to be beneficial for wound healing acne skin eyes there are even guys now putting on their testicles because it can increase testosterone and sperm production hormone release but in terms of the sauna you want that strong heat stimulus you

Fk that
My IR sauna gets hot and I’m sweating like a dog within 12 minutes, so I’d say it’s working as well as a steam sauna
so basically…
70 degrees celcius in my full spectrum infrared sauna is intense, i cant stay in at that heat for very long 15 mins max ,
What temperature does the hot tub need to be?
I have a Serenelife infrared sauna and have felt more uncomfortably hot in there than I have ever been in a traditional sauna made of wood. I also sweated way more
which one do we buy?
Any thoughts on infrared sauna blankets?
Is infrared ok? Is it safe?
will a infrared sauna get my hip replacment to hot
