Which is better, sweat steaming or sweating during exercise?

Anyone who has done sweat steaming knows that you will sweat a lot during the process. In addition, people also sweat when they exercise. Sweating makes people feel happy, and this process is very comfortable. In the eyes of many people, sweating during steaming and sweating during exercise are exactly the same. The ultimate goal is to sweat. In fact, there are differences between these two ways of sweating. So which kind of sweating is better for the body?

Which is better, sweat steaming or sweating during exercise?

Steaming and sweating during exercise are different. Steaming is passive sweating, while sweating during exercise is active sweating.

Sweating during exercise

Detoxification through exercise generates kinetic energy by activating muscle pumps and respiratory pumps. This kind of physical fitness will gradually decrease with age. If the kinetic energy exceeds this limit, active oxygen will be produced. Some of this active oxygen will be excreted in the form of sweat. However, since a large amount of oxygen is consumed to produce active oxygen, it is actually harmful to the body. In addition, due to excessive exercise and insufficient oxygen supply, muscles will produce lactic acid from glucose and accumulate in the muscles, causing an acidic physique.

Steaming and sweating

Lactic acid, active oxygen free radicals, will not be produced in the steam room. The difference between a steam room and general steam is that it is not just aerobic exercise. The energy in the steam room can penetrate deep into the whole body, promote the metabolism of blood vessels, lymph and cells, and is very beneficial to human health.

The difference between sweating during steaming and sweating during exercise

Sweating during steaming is different from sweating during exercise, which is specifically manifested in the following aspects:

Steaming is passive sweating, while exercise is active sweating

Sweating during steaming relies on the high temperature of external infrared rays to raise the body temperature and cause sweating, thereby producing water metabolism, which is a passive sweating.

Sweating during exercise is the process of converting energy within the body through muscle movement, generating heat and causing water to be excreted. Therefore, sweating during exercise is active sweating.

Sweat from steaming is non-sticky and odorless, but sweat from exercise has a sweaty odor

Because a large amount of negative ions kill the bacteria in the sweat in the steam room, there will be no odor or discomfort left on the body after steaming. That’s why there’s no need to take a shower after a steam bath, and the experience itself is just like taking a hot bath.

However, sweating during exercise is different. Sweat itself is waste, bacteria, toxins and other substances in the body, and it does not have a setting to kill bacteria like sweat steaming. Therefore, sweat after exercise usually has a sweat odor. Therefore, you must take a shower after sweating during exercise, otherwise you will feel very uncomfortable.

Exercise and sweating are more effective in losing weight than sweating through steaming

In fact, exogenous heat like sweat steaming causes sweating, and does not consume fat or protein without any personal activity. Most of the sweat steamed out is water, so the weight loss effect is relatively small.

Sweating during exercise is different. After 20 minutes of exercise, the fat in the body will begin to burn, and the sweat you sweat at this time includes fat. Therefore, exercising and sweating are more effective in losing weight.

Note: Even though sweating during exercise is better than sweat steaming, you should also pay attention to the amount of exercise, and replenish water and minerals in time after exercise to avoid hurting your body.

Compared with sweating during steaming, sweating during exercise can also treat high blood pressure

You know, patients with high blood pressure cannot go to sweat steaming, otherwise it will cause danger.

However, exercise is different. In addition to beautifying, detoxifying and losing weight, sweating during exercise can also assist in the treatment of high blood pressure. Because hypertension is a "high blood pressure" phenomenon caused by the narrowing of the inner diameter of blood vessels and the restriction of unit blood flow, physical exercise can dilate capillaries, accelerate blood circulation, and increase the elasticity of blood vessel walls, thereby effectively relieving blood vessel pressure and lowering blood pressure.
