November is and studies suggest that regular infrared sauna use may help reduce the risk of developing Alzheimer’s. Here’s how:
🧠 Boosts Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF): Sauna sessions elevate BDNF - a key protein that supports neuron growth and protects against cognitive decline.
❤️ Improves Cardiovascular + Cerebral Blood Flow: Heat exposure expands blood vessels, increasing oxygen and nutrient delivery to the brain and lowering the risk of vascular dementia.
🔥 Reduces Chronic Inflammation: Consistent sauna use lowers inflammatory markers that contribute to brain cell damage and Alzheimer’s progression.
🛡️ Activates Heat Shock Proteins (HSPs): These protective proteins help repair or remove misfolded proteins like beta-amyloid and tau - the hallmark plaques and tangles of Alzheimer’s.
💧 Supports Detoxification: Deep sweating aids in removing heavy metals and toxins associated with neurodegenerative disease.
Your sweat sessions aren’t just for recovery ~ they may be helping your mind stay clearer, longer!
