1, detoxification and disease prevention
Sweating is the best way to detoxify and prevent diseases. You may not believe it. Research data show that sweat is one of the ways to excrete arsenic, cadmium, lead, mercury and other harmful substances in the body. Heavy metal components with the same concentration as urine can be detected in sweat, and sometimes the concentration is even higher than urine.
For example, marathon runners seldom get sick because the main culprits of lead, mercury and arsenic in their bodies are excreted through sweating. A marathon runner's sweat contains 20 times as much lead as normal people. It is not enough for us to drink water to detoxify. It can be seen that sweating is very helpful for expelling toxins and preventing diseases.
2, moisturizing skin care
Sweat can remove toxins that clog pores and eliminate acne and acne on the skin. Many people often have acne on their faces and backs, which is caused by unclean skin pores and clogged pores. In summer, it is best to exercise more and sweat more, and immediately feel that the skin becomes tight, delicate and shiny, and acne will be reduced.
3. Lose weight and prevent chronic diseases
In addition, sweating can also consume excess energy of the body, which helps to promote the decomposition of fat and has a certain weight loss effect. With less fat in the body and blood vessels, chronic diseases such as natural hypertension, hyperlipidemia and heart disease will also be reduced and improved.
In summer, cells will be more active. At this time, strengthening exercise and sweating scientifically will have several times the usual effect, which is more conducive to losing weight, improving physical condition and preventing chronic diseases such as "three highs".
4. Improve immunity
The best way is to sweat through science. It is found that antibacterial peptides contained in sweat can effectively resist viruses, bacteria and fungi. Sweating can effectively enhance immunity and improve the ability to resist bacteria and viruses. For example, if you exercise for 30-45 minutes every day, your body will sweat slightly, and if you persist for a long time, your immunity will be enhanced.
Step 5 promote digestion
Summer often leads to loss of appetite and indigestion. At this time, the best way to promote digestion is to sweat through exercise. Because sweating will accelerate the metabolism of the whole body, help intestinal peristalsis and improve digestion.
Especially for people with constipation, sweating through exercise is also very helpful to relieve constipation.
6. Enhance memory
Sweating can also make human cells in a vigorous state, maintain mental concentration, enhance memory and make the brain more energetic.
In addition, studies have confirmed that sweating during exercise will have a positive effect on the brain, which can greatly improve people's memory and attention.
7. Stabilize blood pressure
Exercise and sweating help to dilate capillaries, accelerate blood circulation and increase the elasticity of blood vessel wall, thus achieving the purpose of lowering blood pressure. At the same time, exercise and sweating speed up blood circulation and contribute to the regulation of digestive system and nervous system. Therefore, besides diet control, sweating is the best way to prevent hypertension.
8. Protect bones
We all know that many people are prone to osteoporosis when they get old, because of the loss of calcium in their bodies. So how to effectively prevent the loss of calcium? A simple and effective way is to exercise and sweat. Sweating is beneficial to the effective retention of calcium, preventing calcium from being excreted with urine and preventing osteoporosis.
9, prevent stones
The formation of stones is mainly due to the crystallization and deposition of inorganic salts such as magnesium phosphate in the body. Sweating can effectively expel salt from the body and keep calcium in the bones. This physiological process can limit the accumulation of salt and calcium in kidney and urine, which is the source of stones. It is no coincidence that people who sweat more will drink more water, thus preventing the formation of stones.
10, preventing colds
Sweating actually helps to fight tuberculosis and other dangerous pathogens. Antibacterial peptides contained in sweat can effectively resist viruses, bacteria and fungi; It can enter the cell membrane of bacteria and break it down. The research results published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences 20 13 show that dermatan can effectively fight tuberculosis and other bacteria. This natural substance is more effective than antibiotics. The natural antibiotic dermatan can be naturally activated in slightly acidic sweat.
Extended content: the benefits of women's persistence in sports
According to the website of "Health Day" in March 13, a recent study by Stanford University in the United States found that when exercising, the palm temperature is lower, and people keep exercising for longer.
Obese people are more prone to fatigue and overheating during exercise, so many obese women often give up continuing exercise. In the new study, 24 obese women aged 30-45 were divided into two groups. They were asked to hold a cooling device during exercise, but one group was 16℃ (cold hand group) and the other group was 37℃ (hot hand group). Participants continued 12 weeks, three times a week, each time 10 minutes of weight exercise, 25-45 minutes of running with cooling device in hand, 10 minutes of strength training. The result shows that the participant of "cold hand group" is 1. The test time of 5-mile treadmill is shortened by 5 minutes, and the heart rate is increased from 136 to 154 per minute, so the exercise effect is better.
If the body temperature drops during exercise, the discomfort such as fatigue and sweating will be alleviated and the exercise will last longer. So when people can't keep exercising, they might as well take something cold in their hands, such as ice cubes and iced drinks, or do it in a cool environment.
The meaning of human life lies in exercise, and the benefits brought by exercise far exceed our imagination.

Exercise can release endorphins (a kind of hormone that can relieve pain). Endorphins can relieve physical pain and make tendons difficult to stretch. Relieve some chronic symptoms of the body, such as arthritis. A study by the University of North Carolina in the United States proved that after six months of low-intensity exercise (such as balanced exercise), the pain of arthritis patients was reduced by 25%, and the stiffness was reduced by 16%.
Practicing yoga or Tai Chi twice a week can increase physical flexibility and reduce pain.
2. Reduce the chance of catching a cold by 33%
Proper exercise can not only speed up your metabolism, but also improve your immunity and help your body fight against the invasion of cold viruses and other bacteria. A study by the University of Washington, USA, found that women who take a 45-minute cardiopulmonary exercise course five times a week are three times more likely to catch a cold than women who do stretching exercise once a week.
Keep exercising, but don't overdo it. If you often exercise vigorously, such as running for more than 90 minutes, your immunity will be reduced.
3. A healthier mouth
Experts believe that dental floss and toothbrush are not the only magic weapons for smiling, but exercise also plays an important role.

According to statistics, 50% people feel tired at least one day a week. Researchers at the University of Georgia in the United States analyzed 70 different studies and concluded that moving the body can increase body energy and reduce fatigue. Regular exercise can stimulate some anti-fatigue chemicals in the brain, such as norepinephrine and dopamine, which can make people energetic, and serotonin in the brain can help you improve your mood.

A study by the University of Pennsylvania found that randomly selected women feel sexier and more attractive than before after four months of walking or yoga practice, even though their weight has not changed. Exercise can increase the blood flow of reproductive system and make people in a state of love. A study by the University of Washington found that just 20 minutes of cycling can improve women's sexual attraction index 169%! And this benefit can stand the test of time: Harvard University's research on swimmers found that those with an average age of over 60 can still get sexual satisfaction as they did when they were young.
