    I lived in Japan and one of the most popular things to do is to go to onsen spas. These are even built in city buildings and it's a normal part of the Japanese lifestyle to sit in a hot spring, then dip into a cold bath, and then sit in a sauna. We can learn a lot from Japan's wellness lifestyle.

    My Finnish Grandfather is 89 years old. Although he is the last of his siblings to be alive, all of his siblings lived to be 95 or older. Of course, this most likely has a huge correlation with genetics but his entire family has been using saunas for as long as he has been alive. When he moved to America he got a finnish sauna installed in his house and regularly goes in it to this day. Really interesting to see studies come out linking long life to sauna therapy!!!

    I’ve read that 101.5 deg F is the internal body temp to aim for. Use a thermometer to monitor your temp and move to the lower cooler part of the sauna to maintain your temp at 101.5 as long as you can stand. This will activate your heat shock proteins etc - and you will avoid dangerous overheating by staying in too long!

    One of the benefits of living in Japan is that these sauna/hot bath/cold bath "sentos" are everywhere. Get naked, soak in the hot bath for a few minutes, into the sauna for 5-10 minutes (as you can handle), then drop straight into the cold bath for a few minutes. Then back to the hot bath and repeat the cycle 3-5 times. Amazing.

    Sauna as we know it originated from Finland but many other cultures have variations of it. The word sauna is the only loan word from Finnish in the English language. Our ancestors have had saunas for thousands of years and it’s even believed that our ancestors brought it with them when they came from Siberia after the last ice age. Sauna is so deep in our Finnish heritage that there are more saunas than cars in Finland.

      Something I can instantly tell is after going to a lake or snow to cool down and then going back to sauna. It really feels like it gets your blood flowing. The sendation is almost like a natural high.
      It’s really important to drink a lot of water if you’re going for a longer time since you’re sweating a lot. The temperature Finnish people usually heat their saunas to is somewhere between 60-120 celsius, depending on the person and age. We also throw water on the rocks to get something we call ”löyly”.

    Love the show Mike! Discovered "hot bath" by accident about 4 years ago in Canada. Once I figured out that (most of the time), a HOT bath (12 - 30 min) could lower my BP (have essential hypertension) by 20-30 points, I was hooked. A good soak feels like I just sprinted 100 yards when I get out! Measuring water temp, 110F - 115F seems to be most effective for me (56yo, 5'7, 160lbs). Basically, as hot as you can stand in for 10 seconds. Lower temps (104F) seems to be effective only at longer soaks, 30+ minutes. I travel a lot, so I prefer this method as most hotels have bathtubs. Keep up the good work Mike!

    Both hot and cold can be very beneficial for health. Escpecially your cardiovascular system. I typically sauna once a week atleast, once you have tried sauna bathing, you will never feel fully clean after only a regular shower. It is not a replacement for exercise imo though although it does make your blood flow. You still need resistance training and normal exercise like walking and swimming for the muscles and bones.

    Heat increases the rate at which atoms move about. The higher the heat, the faster they move and this causes your fluids to become less viscous and flow more easily. This is the main reason any real health benefits are found. It is a quick way to fake a plumbing repair within the body, since one your body cools again the effects begins to dissipate. Also the body is mostly water content and the water quality the world over sucks to say the least. Heat purifies water, so while you are unblocking the (partial) blockages, the water content is being purified and this increases the ability of the body to function to potential. Drinking good water regularly can also deliver similar results, just as eating well can deliver the same results of clearing blockages but in a way that will last much longer.
    IMHO the best reason to do the sauna thing is because of the hot/cold routine to increase the immune system, similar to cold showers or ice baths AND for relaxation. The other benefits can be obtained in other ways, so it is simply a choice of how one goes about getting the results they are after.
    eg: Hot tubs are another alternative to the sauna but the benefits are mostly the same.

I usually stay in a 250 degree Fahrenheit sauna for an hour at a time and go in multiple times. I feel healthy and rejuvenated each time. I love Rhonda Patrick's work on sauna and the use of your platform to get the goo word out. I have done cold plunges as well as sitting outside in the winter between episodes in the sauna. (I grew up in Central Illinois back when it was cold in the winter) I highly recommend saunas and would suggest including Flotation as well. Thanks for your great content.

So, avoiding linoleic acid is really important to do. Instead, maybe try a diet of just ancestral foods-it does amazing things for neurological problems.
