What are the advantages and disadvantages of sweating?

Sweating is a metabolic process that occurs in everyone's body. It is necessary, but whether sweating is good for the body depends on the individual's physical condition. If you are overweight, sweating is definitely a good thing, but if you are suffering from yin deficiency, sweating may cause collapse.

This is only relative. For fat people, this is a good thing. The pores will be unblocked and the body's heat can be discharged. It is not a good thing for people with Yin deficiency. Excessive sweating will cause exhaustion. The human body sweats because of the heat in the blood. People with Yin deficiency are relatively thin and have insufficient Qi and blood. It is not a good thing for them to sweat profusely. For normal people, sweating a little is a good thing, but don't get tired and exhausted. It is in line with nourishing Yang in spring and summer and nourishing Yin in autumn and winter. This rule,

Especially now that it's so hot, don't hide in an air-conditioned room every day. If you don't sweat for ten days or half a month, your body pores will be blocked and you will get skin diseases.

Sweating can be divided into active and passive types. The so-called passive sweating refers to sweating caused by hot weather and irritable mood. This way of sweating is not good for the human body. On the contrary, sweating caused by active movement of the human body is called active sweating. It helps to maintain the body's temperature, dissipate heat, and is beneficial to people's physical and mental health.

The function of sweat is to regulate body temperature. If you think about it carefully, the human body is really like a precision machine. If you don't sweat, you're out of luck. When you exercise, your blood circulation speeds up, your body temperature rises and you sweat, which lowers your body temperature. When it gets cold, your sweat glands and pores contract, and you stop sweating, which prevents your body temperature from dissipating.

Sweat is the "air conditioner" of our body. According to traditional Chinese medicine, we sweat in summer, and sweating is a form of detoxification. There are two ways for people to detoxify: one is urination, and the other is sweating. Sweating is the most effective way to detoxify. Summer is the only season in the year when one can sweat naturally. This is beneficial to the body's metabolism, meridian balance and the health of the immune system. If you hold back on sweating for a long time, your skin will stop breathing, and eventually it will cause disorders in the body's metabolic system and transfer the skin's detoxification function to the kidneys and liver.
