In one study performed by American researchers, the sweat
of people using a conventional sauna was found to be 95
to 97% water while the sweat of those using an Far infrared thermal system was 80 to 85% water with the non-water
portion principally cholesterol, fat-soluble toxins, toxic
heavy metals (such as mercury and aluminum), sulfuric
acid, sodium, ammonia and uric acid. This unusually high
concentration of heavy metals and other fat-soluble toxins
is not found in the sweat from normal exercise.
Mercury is the most toxic element on earth, second only
to plutonium.
detoxification
Hyperthermic detoxification using these saunas is not
only uniquely helpful in removing fat-stored toxins from
the body, but also as an adjunct to mercury removal.
Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt, M.D., of Seattle, who has been
called the holistic doctors’ doctor and teacher,
is one of the pioneers in combining the use of Far infrared
saunas with the chelating agent DMPS in a heavy metal
detox protocol.
Dr. Klinghardt explains, Since hyperthermic sauna therapy
removes metal contaminants from the body, we have found
that it may be used to further the benefits derived from
chelation therapy. And we have also found that it
may be an alternative for those who are unable to undergo
chelation. Research conducted by U.S. scientists
has demonstrated that close to 80% of individuals with
chronic fatigue syndrome will improve markedly by a guided detoxification program.2 We combine this approach
with hyperthermic therapy using the Far infrared sauna,
as well as exercise and chelation. The results we
are seeing are very promising.
Dr. Klinghardt adds, If Far infrared saunas work, why
wait to use them? People need information about
what nutrients and minerals to take, how to stay hydrated,
and a reminder to shower after the sauna. It’s
not going to do much good to spend time detoxifying if
you don’t wash off those toxins afterwards.
And don’t overlook the importance of educating yourself
and your children about sources of environmental toxins
and allergens. Your future health depends on it!
home sauna
Detoxification from heavy metals including mercury, lead, cadmium, and aluminum with our home saunas. Because it operates more effectively (the body actually sweats more) at temperatures 60 to 80 degrees lower than conventional saunas, the detoxification is from 7 to 10 times greater. Detox of the body on a cellular level.
