“Dr. Rhonda Patrick discusses how conditioning the body to heat stress through sauna use, called "hyperthermic conditioning" may cause adaptations that increase athletic endurance (by increasing plasma volume and blood flow to heart and muscles) and potentially even muscle mass. She also discusses the profound effects of hyperthermic conditioning on the brain including cognitive function.”

“As discussed in Dr. Mattson’s review published in Scientific American, the benefit of vegetables is not to flood cells with antioxidants and eliminate all free radicals (which are important for normal cell signaling), but rather for phytochemicals to trigger the cell's own adaptive responses.”

“The effects of heat exposure are broad and include improved immunity, better cardiovascular health, improved mood, and extended healthspan, the number of years we live in good health. Rhonda shares her personal sauna bathing routine and briefly describes special considerations for children and other special groups.”
