10 Amazing Benefits Of Sweating You Didn’t Know by EKITI001: 8:17pm On Jun 02, 2015

We learned about it in health class…sweat is the physical evidence that we have a built in air conditioner. Our P.E. teachers seemed determined to push us to sweat in hot gyms and outdoor playgrounds; we were then advised to replenish with liquids so that our system could function properly. And THAT is the extent of what most of us learned about perspiring. In the celebration of ongoing education, it’s time to truly understand the amazing benefits of sweating.





1. You didn’t know sweat glands help heal wounds?

For the last few years, more and more research has been done on eccrine sweat glands which exist in the millions on our skin. At the University of Michigan, researcher Laure Rittie is discovering that these glands host an important reservoir of adult stem cells which aid in the process of wound closures. “By identifying a key process of wound closure, we can examine drug therapies with a new target in mind: sweat glands, which are very under-studied,” Rittié says. “We’re hoping this will stimulate research in a promising, new direction.”




2. Amazing benefit of toxin release

What exactly happens when we sweat it out? It’s true…we literally release toxins from our system using sweat as the conduit. Experts agree that we mainly release excess salt, cholesterol and alcohol. Which means that a sweaty work-out will de-bloat us, clean our clogged arteries and help with a hang-over? Johnny Cash and skateboarders take this theory for a RIDE.




3. Sweating as an antibiotic

Who needs antibacterial ointment when sweat spreads highly efficient antibiotics on to our skin! If our skin is wounded by a small cut, a scratch, or the sting of a mosquito, antibiotic agents secreted in sweat glands, such as dermcidin, rapidly and efficiently kill invaders.




4. The enemy of kidney stones is an amazing sweat benefit

Its pain has been dubbed worse than childbirth! Avoiding kidney stones should be a goal for anyone who imbibes in too much of a high fat, high salt diet and has difficulty “flushing” their bladder on a regular basis due to their schedule. Research shows that regular exercisers and dedicated water drinkers flush their system more efficiently and help to control the onset of kidney stones. Sweating during exercise causes the body to demand more hydration which in turn keeps the kidneys flushed.






5. Regular physical training produces amazing sweat glands

In the grand fight against ill health and obesity, we’re pushing ourselves into whole new arenas of training. 5Ks, marathons, IronMenWomen competitions demand intense and regular training sessions. Fortunately, our body’s incredible anticipation of these sessions allows it to begin cooling earlier as well increasing the actual size of sweat glands to keep up with body’s needs.
