“This is new research from Dr. Charles Raison. Check out my podcast with him to learn more about the role inflammation plays in mood disorders and how whole body hyperthermia (ie. sauna, hot bath, steam room, hot yoga) may improve depressive symptoms.”

“These findings suggest that maintaining and improving cardiovascular health during young adulthood is crucial for lowering the risk of developing cardiovascular disease later in life. Sauna use is an excellent strategy for boosting cardiovascular health.”

“These findings suggest that high-resistance inspiratory muscle strength training demonstrates promise as a lifestyle strategy to lower blood pressure. Another lifestyle behavior that reduces blood pressure is sauna use. Learn more about sauna use in our overview article.”

“The findings from this meta-analysis suggest that supplemental magnesium reduces inflammation, a driver of many chronic diseases. You can read about other strategies to reduce inflammation in our overview articles on aerobic exercise, sauna use, and cold exposure.”

“These findings suggest that exercise markedly reduces the risk of dying from cardiovascular disease, even among men with high blood pressure. Interestingly, sauna use also reduces blood pressure and the risk of cardiovascular disease-related death.”

“The researchers posited that the immobilized arm retained more muscle mass and strength due to neural adaptations from training the opposite arm, a phenomenon known as cross-education effects. Interestingly, sauna use can also help maintain muscle mass during periods of disuse due to immobilization.”

“For example, robust evidence indicates that exercise, sauna use, cold exposure, eating plenty of polyphenol-rich fruits and vegetables, and many other lifestyle factors slow aging. But recent research has revealed some promising technologies that may slow, or even reverse, some markers of aging.”

“Evidence suggests lifestyle factors influence a person's dementia risk. Learn how sauna use, exercise, sleep, and dietary components, such as omega-3 fatty acids and sulforaphane exert robust anti-aging effects on the brain, potentially preventing or forestalling dementia.”

“Evidence indicates that the increased sweating that occurs during sauna use may help rid the body of phthalates. Learn more about the health effects of sauna use in this comprehensive open access review written by Dr. Rhonda Patrick. Link to study abstract.”

“These findings suggest that moderate coffee consumption reduces the risk of stroke in women. Other lifestyle behaviors may reduce stroke risk, too, such as sauna use, which may reduce risk by as much as half. Learn more in this presentation by Dr. Rhonda Patrick.”
