Deliberate Heat Exposure Changes Biology

  • Regular use of sauna and other heat exposure can reduce mortality by cardiovascular events, stroke, and all-cause mortality.
  • You will become better adapted and better at sweating excess heat with frequent exposure.
  • Options if you don’t have access to a sauna: try hot water bath up to the neck – getting a similar temperature is key (176F-212F); wear a plastic suit (like fighters trying to drop weight).
  • Wet sauna and dry sauna are both acceptable; most infrared saunas don’t get hot enough.
