Letâs talk about what would happen if you used a sauna for 14 days. I think it could create a huge change in your overall health.
Saunas have interesting thermotherapy benefits. When you use a sauna, your body adapts to mild stress. Adding mild stress causes your body to adapt and become stronger.
Other things that create mild stress, causing a similar effect, are cold showers, ice baths, fasting, and exercise.
There are a lot of health benefits of sauna therapy, including an increase in certain hormones (growth hormone, noradrenaline, dopamine, serotonin, and prolactin) and much more. But keep in mind that when you use a sauna, itâs crucial to get enough electrolytes in the right balance.
The benefits of sauna therapy:
1. It can help lower your resting heart rate
2. It can stimulate lymphatic flow
3. It can help lower blood pressure
4. It can decrease the risk and intensity of an asthmatic event
5. It increases circulation
6. It can strengthen the immune system
7. It can help decrease all-cause mortality
8. It can decrease pain
9. It can decrease inflammation
10. It may help improve psoriasis
11. It promotes recovery
12. It supports cognitive function
13. It increases insulin sensitivity
14. It decreases ROS (it has an antioxidant effect)
15. It has similar benefits to moderate aerobic exercise
16. It promotes better skin quality
17. It increases autophagy
*It increases melatonin (when using a sauna with infrared light)

Thanks for watching! I hope this answers your questions about saunas and increases your awareness of the benefits of sauna therapy. Iâll see you in the next video.
you know I've talked about cryotherapy which is cold therapy taking a cold shower but sauna bathing I think can give you almost as many benefits and today we're going to talk about what would happen if you were to do sauna on a regular basis for 14 days I think you can create a huge change in your overall health now what happens when you go into the sauna is you have this interesting thermal therapy benefit of your body adapting to this mild stress and the term for that is called a harmonic effect where you're adding a stress to cause your body to then adapt and become stronger now there are other things that can give you this hermetic effect like cold showers or the ice tubs fasting exercise but let's dive into the benefits of what this sauna can give you now you have the regular sauna where you're adding heat but then you also have another type of sauna which is not as hot where they're using infrared which is a little bit different that can go a little bit deeper into the body because of this infrared can penetrate inside the body and it can also increase more melatonin but in this video I want to primarily focus in on the benefits of a regular heated sauna situation so let's first talk about what it can do to your hormones it can definitely increase growth hormone by 140 percent it can increase nor adrenaline which is a hormone from your adrenal glands it can significantly increase dopamine which can actually make you calmer and affect your mood it can increase serotonin which can also affect your mood and even increase your prolactin which is another hormone but let's go through some of the other benefits number one it can help lower your resting heart rate okay now the more the person exercises the more athletic they become the lower the resting heart rate and that can definitely decrease your risk for all sorts of cardiovascular problems and extend your life so having a lower resting pulse rate is a good thing number two it can help your lymphatic system and it's kind of like a backup reserve for your vascular system and it's a place where your immune system hangs out with all the lymph nodes and so a sauna can actually help stimulate the lymphatic system so even though the pulse rate will increase during the summer like you're working out over a period of time your body will adapt to this and give you a lower resting pulse rate to roughly about 120 beats per minute so you're actually getting your heart to pump you're getting better circulation more lymph flow and the therapeutic effect from a sauna can actually mimic what you would get from doing moderate aerobic exercise which is pretty pretty interesting because you're not actually running you're just sitting there it has some pretty cool effects on lowering your blood pressure it can decrease the intensity and the risk of getting an asthmatic event it can actually strengthen your immune system so you don't get sick as often and this next one is quite remarkable they have found that it decreases all cause mortality in one study by 40 if you're doing a sauna four to seven days a week so just that one little benefit alone kind of makes you want to go into the sauna sauna therapy can actually help reduce pain inflammation it can actually help certain skin problems like psoriasis it can give you something that can help you recover over stress and even exercise sonotherapy can give you significant cognitive benefits which is really cool it can actually decrease the severity of dementia too another cool benefit that relates to a lot of other side benefits is it can increase insulin sensitivity so it actually is helping you with your blood sugars it decreases something called roths which has to do with oxidative stress so it kind of has an antioxidant effect it makes your skin look youthful and it's probably a combination of both the Hermetic effect from the Heat and as well as the circulation as well as autophagy okay so the sonotherapy can stimulate autophagy which is this recycling of old damaged proteins which is pretty cool now you're going to be sweating in the sauna so let me just kind of cover what happens when you sweat you're going to be losing mostly uh sodium with a smaller amount of potassium an average person consumes about 3 300 milligrams of sodium every single day and that's about a thousand milligrams over what they should be consuming okay which is about 2300 now this doesn't take into consideration sweating and exercise okay but on average they consume a certain amount of potassium which is usually more than they should but a lot of that is dependent on your potassium levels because an average person consumes only about 2600 milligrams of potassium and they need 4 700 a lot more so sodium does not become a problem if you have enough potassium but here's the thing when you go into the sauna you're going to be sweating out mostly your sodium and so the sodium is going to go down and down and down and so depending on if you have too much sodium you might feel better let's say for example you're doing this long fast right where you need more sodium or you're doing the ketogenic diet where you need more sodium and you then do this sauna treatment and you sweat it out yet you're also not getting enough potassium now you can end up with a electrolyte imbalance so anytime you're doing the sauna take in consideration the sweating and so make sure you're getting enough electrolytes you might need a little bit more potassium you might need more sodium with that but you want to balance those things out so those are some pretty cool benefits of the sauna treatment you might want to try it and since we're on the topic of sodium and potassium I put this video up right here check it out

Weâve heard so many similar stories from people using infrared saunas regularly â the changes sneak up on you. Better circulation, looser muscles, clearer skin⊠it really adds up when you stay consistent. Curious if anyone here noticed a difference in sleep or recovery after a couple of weeks? That seems to be one of the most common benefits people mention.
So how much electricity/cost would it be to have a sauna box run for 30-40
Mins? Would there be a significant increase in power bill? Thx â€
Not having access to a sauna an a daily basis, how does 1 session per month do for these benefits?
Thanks!
can you do infrared saunas if you have Von Willibrands?
It helps to excrete micro plastics you missed it Berg
Saunas helped me be out of the ER two or three times a week to get morphine after a back injury completely ruined my life. My only problem is that I get a healing crisis if I do more than 3 or 4 a week. Has anyone had this experience? Any suggestions on how to deal with this?
Just purchased an infrared sauna blanket. Excited to get started!
Dry or infared, which is the best?
needs monitoring
I just started this⊠he hasnât used the word âinsulinâ yet, but if he does Iâm tossing my phone.
From drc nice

Thanks doctor ! I have been doing jt for 1.5 months and the dopamine and calming effects are instantly evident. I do wonder about the electrolyte loss any suggestions for that??
Kevin trudeau was right then thank u doc

Donât forget to jump into a cold plunge or shower immediately when you come out of the sauna. Iâve noticed a lot of people donât know how to do sauna properly.
14 days? No mention of time duration it takes to receive any of aforementioned benefits.
Thanks a lot, Doc! Would the hot bath (real hot) provide the same/similar benefits?
Can you talk about jacuzzi hot tub benefits
Which one is better traditional or infrared?
I have been doing Steam/Sauna for 50 years now and can tell you that, for me, no way can these new infra red match the traditional Finnish saunas. The steam room is my favourite
I do 2 to 3hrs of Steam room & Sauna room 5 times a week. I can do 2hrs 30 straight (without cumming out of a steam room & 1hr 30min on the top shelf of a sauna), It has saved my life and I have dropped body weight. My blood pressure was 257/140 the death zone and is now 200/112, which is still in the death zone but much improved. Steam/sauna encourage one to drink fluids. For a 3hrs session, I drink 6 litres of filtered water (fluoride and chlorine removed from the water). I also drink 1 litre of pure coconut water for the replacement of electrolyte. I have been doing Steam/Sauna for 50 years now. I have had several heart attacks, following a 85mph head on collision car crash, me hit by a drunk driver. following that, my mother died of cancer, which took its toll on me. I then caught COVID 4 times, which gave me pneumonia, unbalanced body via long COVID & 4 strokes. I am now partially disabled and have to use a rollator to walk.
I was on statins/heart medication for a while but took myself off them due to the horrible side effects. I have quit all medications apart from aspirin and have decided to work on the cause, change my lifestyle/diet etc, do it the natural way. I swear by the steam sauna rooms. They are keeping me alive today.
this is probably why people in ht countries live longer
How long in the sauna?
I was wondering why I wasnât seeing videos from you! I was unsubscribed but I never did that
What about using a sauna on a regular basis if you have kidney stones? Could it be risky for dehydrating thereby causing more stones to form?
Sauna bathing gives other benefits than cold therapy, although there are some overlaps.
The strangest cover photo I think Iâve ever seen đ
