Hot baths and saunas for weight loss
Hot baths not only remove dirt and relieve fatigue, but they are also an effective and simple way to lose weight.
When taking a hot bath, body temperature gradually rises, and when it reaches around 38℃, the body begins to sweat. Sweating expels a large amount of water from the body and consumes a significant amount of energy. Generally, soaking in a bath consumes more energy than showering, resulting in a more noticeable weight loss effect. Therefore, obese individuals who can tolerate soaking in a bathtub are better off choosing this option.
Saunas originated in the Netherlands, and are commonly known as steam baths in China. They are available in many large hotels, restaurants, and sanatoriums, and are gradually gaining acceptance, with some people even trying them for weight loss. However, if saunas are not an option, the following method can be used: First, soak in a hot bath at 30°C-40°C or higher for 5-10 minutes; then take a cold shower for 3-12 minutes to lower the skin temperature by 8°C-16°C; rest for about 15 minutes until the body temperature returns to its original level. Repeat this process 2-3 times. This method, as an alternative to sauna baths, can also achieve good results.
To lose weight using hot baths or saunas, it's important to follow the correct method: avoid doing so within one hour after a meal or when hungry. It's best to do it two to three hours after a meal, as this consumes more energy and helps prevent hypoglycemia-related collapse. However, this method is not suitable for obese individuals with epilepsy, heart failure, chronic heart or lung disease, or obese women during menstruation or pregnancy.
Hot water baths and saunas can be used for weight loss, depending on individual physical condition, 2-3 times a week. Generally, one can lose about 1 kg per week. The effect is even better when combined with exercise or other weight loss methods.
