Chinese medicine believes that sweating can make skin pores open and drain, reconcile the relationship between skin and the outside world, enhance the function of lung catharsis, and make the whole body blood vessels unobstructed, thus driving away evil spirits and harmonizing righteousness. Its main functions are relieving exterior syndrome, penetrating rash, removing dampness and reducing swelling.
1, sweating can dispel the poison of exterior evil.
We've all experienced it firsthand. When you have a cold, you have a fever and are afraid of the cold. If you don't sweat a little, drink some hot porridge, and your cold will get better. Or sweat in the sauna, and the cold will get better. This is because sweating can enhance the skin's function of protecting the muscle surface and drive away the cold that causes colds.
2, sweating can penetrate the rash.
For example, chicken pox can be accompanied by sweating and fever. In fact, fever is a reaction of the body to protect itself. So the chicken pox can come out. Therefore, sweating can help the rash come out when the rash does not appear or the hair is not smooth.
3, sweating can dispel dampness and detoxify.
Friends with severe moisture can get rid of it by sweating. Water usually stays under the skin, and when sweating, the pores are open, and water can evaporate from the opened pores into sweat. People with high humidity generally have sore limbs, so they will have a faint pleasure after sweating and feel more comfortable. But be careful not to sweat a lot for a long time, which may easily lead to dehydration.
1, sweat is detoxification?
There are many components in sweat, and some components accumulate too much on the body surface, which is easy to cause the reproduction of microorganisms and bacteria. Sweat is the best culture of these bacteria, and the excrement of bacteria and sweat will produce an odor, which is what we usually call sweat. So it's not because the toxins in the body are discharged, but because the body surface is not clean.
2. Is the skin bright and firm after sweating because the toxin is discharged?
After sweating a lot, the metabolism of water and liquid in the human body is accelerated, which is good for the skin. Moreover, exercise can also increase blood circulation, and the yang is sufficient, and the complexion is naturally ruddy and shiny. It's not sweat that excretes toxins from the body.
3. Is the discharged sweat sticky because there are toxins?
Sweat is sticky because sebaceous glands are exuberant and secrete more oil, so the sweat discharged is sticky, which often happens to people with more body fat. It is suggested that such friends usually eat less greasy or spicy food and keep their skin dry and clean, which can generally be improved. So sweat is not sticky because it is toxic in the body.
4. Does yellow sweat detoxify?
The yellowing of sweat is sometimes caused by drugs, and some drugs such as riboflavin can make sweat and urine yellow. Hepatobiliary diseases can also lead to yellowing of sweat due to abnormal bile excretion. Excessive sweating, unclean body surface, and reaction with microorganisms in the air will also lead to yellowing of sweat. Therefore, there are many reasons for the yellowing of sweat, not the discharge of toxins.
Therefore, perspiration can not really detoxify, but only relieve some uncomfortable symptoms of the body through perspiration. It is not that the more you sweat, the better. Everyone should be careful not to sweat too much. In addition, if spontaneous sweating and night sweats are pathological, you should consult a doctor for diagnosis.
