The harm of sweat steaming

Steaming is a kind of health care method for leisure and entertainment. It is very popular in normal times. Some women often steam. Steaming can not only beautify and remove spots, but also help the body detoxify and relieve many diseases, such as arthritis, gastroenteritis and other diseases. It is very beneficial to the body. However, not everyone is suitable for steaming. Steaming is also harmful. What are the hazards of steaming?

What are the dangers of sweat steaming?

1. People who experience steaming for the first time have never experienced such a high temperature and low humidity environment before, and their body's resistance to high temperature is very limited, which can easily cause headaches, dizziness, and stuffiness.

2. The fabrics, bamboo curtains, wooden strips, etc. used in the installation and decoration of the steam room are inevitably contaminated during processing and transportation. In addition, some people are sensitive to the smell of the wood and bamboo curtains in the box. After inhaling a large amount of these gases, they will experience discomfort symptoms such as pungent, dazzling, dizzy, headache, etc.

3. When the temperature is too high, sweat evaporates too quickly, the skin feels dry, and the amount of sweating is affected. If the temperature is too low, the sweat cannot be produced thoroughly, resulting in the skin not feeling refreshed after steaming.

4. Excessive dehydration and shrinkage of body cells due to prolonged sweat steaming will cause electrolyte imbalance in the body. After the steaming is over, the osmotic pressure inside and outside the body cells will be too high, and the cells will absorb water excessively, forming edema. Excessive and frequent sweating may gradually lead to a deficit of electrolytes, resulting in dehydration or edema.

5. The temperature in the steam room is high, the humidity is low, the air flow is fast, and the oxygen content is slightly lower than that outdoors, which can cause the heart rate to accelerate, blood pressure to rise to a large extent, increase the heart load, and easily cause high blood pressure, sudden heart attack, accidents, and even life-threatening situations.

6. When steaming, the body sweats a lot, and the filtering and sweating systems such as the kidneys and sweat glands are under great pressure.

7. Sweating immediately after a meal will cause the blood vessels in the skin to dilate, and a large amount of blood will flow back to the skin, affecting the blood supply to the digestive organs, which will inevitably affect the digestion and absorption of food and is harmful to your health.

8. When you are overworked or hungry, the tension of human cells is poor, and the tolerance to cold and heat stimuli is reduced, which can easily cause symptoms such as collapse and edema.

9. During menstruation, women's body resistance is reduced. When they go in and out of the steam room, the alternation of cold and heat can easily cause colds and bacterial infections and endanger women's health.

10. Frequent sauna use in young men may lead to infertility. Of course, this does not mean that you can never take a sauna. It is okay to do it occasionally. If you already have children, you can enjoy it without any worries.

11. The organs of the elderly have varying degrees of decline. If they force themselves to sweat, it may lead to electrolyte imbalance. In addition, the absorption system function declines and cannot be replenished in time and in sufficient quantities. This may endanger health at the very least and threaten life at the worst.
