Sweat entering the eyes is harmful

Sweat is the liquid secreted by the skin on the body surface. Sweat is actually the liquid inside the body. Sweating can cool the body in time and ensure that the health is not threatened. The amount of sweat depends on the amount of heat the body is exposed to. Severe heat can cause a large amount of sweat to be secreted, and even drip from the forehead into the eyes.

Sodium chloride is about 300 mg/100 ml. 1-2% is a small amount of urea, lactic acid, fatty acids, etc., so the harm to the eyes is minimal, and the eyes will produce tears to resist. The lactoferrin and β-lysin in the tears have defensive functions and can inhibit bacterial growth. In addition, the secretion of tears will promote normal cell metabolism.
