The source claims infrared sauna sweat released more toxins than traditional sauna or exercise sweat. The article cautions that detecting substances in sweat does not prove long-term clinical benefit. The article describes a study finding toxic elements in sweat that were not detected in blood. Mercury is used as an example of a toxic element detected in sweat despite no detectable blood mercury. Sweating is treated as a biological excretion route beyond temperature regulation. Post-sauna showering is favored as a precaution, but the article says reabsorption risk is not definitively proven.
