Health Benefit Of Sauna #6: Combat Illness
As effective as our bodies are at fighting off disease, they are not impervious. We can occasionally be overwhelmed resulting in a cold or flu. If we are unfortunate enough we might even pick up more serious illnesses. It shows just how important our immune systems are to us, and that we should support them where we can.
Studies have shown that saunas are able to bolster our immune systems by encouraging the production of white blood cells. These are the cells that are on the front line of defense and also help with maintenance and repair. A sauna can also help with certain conditions such as sinus congestion.
