Been doing Saunas all over the World since 1990's. Live in Los Angeles and go 3 time a week for the last 3 decades. People think lm in my 30's...turned 61 last week!!! Fountain of Youth!!!
Swim, sauna, hot tub, steam everyday after weight training. Been doing this 43 years. I call my hot tub, steam room, dry sauna and cold pool my reward center. Love it! Keeps me looking and feeling young and healthy.
Hope your hot tub is chemical free.
Hope you weren’t hit by a truck driving 45 MPH as a pedestrian like I was 36 years ago. I’ll take the Haloids over the pain.
Keep it up for 43 more years
That is amazing.🤩 I am doing the same thing my guy. Best day of all time for sure
I sauna after swimming to sweat out all those nasty chemicals
My husband and son built us an outdoor wood-burning sauna this winter. I have always wanted one and this was the year.! Ours has no electricity so when its's winter, we take a light with us. No electronics in the sauna. We absolutely love it! We mostly sauna at about 170-180 degrees for a half hour or more and then cool down outdoors. We live in a cold/windy area in the north so it's a good cool-down, then shower. There is something so therapeutic not only physically, but mentally too. I read somewhere that it's a little like going to church -- you're quiet, solemn, meditative, and so relaxed. It's not something we hurry through, but relish the experience -- even building the fire is part of it. I know sauna is doing great things physically to my body, but the calming experience is one of my top benefits!
Sounds amazing. Love that routine. I have infrared sauna on the way. But im in hot climate so cold shower cool down for me 👍🏼
Peacefulness is a healing process itself...
Absolutely. When I started doing dry sauna, I wasn’t expecting that amazing calming sensation that lasts afterwards. Nice sense of well being, especially when I do sauna after a nice aerobic run fasted of course! Great combo
I use my car as a sauna....I'm a multitasker 😉👍
Make sure you have enough water nearby. Also, I *think* you need to have a small amount of salt in your water. I'm not sure of the exact amount. It's not much. I'm pretty sure Sea Salt is preferred over Table Salt.
Ha! Been doing that for some time too, it's called driving junk with broken (or no) air conditioning. Believe I've only ever owned one vehicle with working A/C, and yes, it gets warm here frequently (above 90°F) during the summer months.
@@silasakron4692 I've always had a working AC in my cars, just rarely ever use it to take advantage of persperation and circulation benefits...sometimes I just sit in it while parked in the sun going thru the mail, etc.
@@silasakron4692 Yeah, but you need to replace your fluids and electrolytes when you do that. You can search around probably to find the right mix of sea salt to water. Gatorade is probably not the best thing for you *except* when you are competing in high intensity sports. Most people should probably stick with plain water with just the right amount of salt added. Also, stop lights are REALLY bad when you have to do that in the southern hemisphere.
BTW: Personally, I find it easier to ride my bicycle in 90°F weather than to drive in a vehicle with no A/C. I'm in good physical condition though.
So interesting seeing the science behind sauna! We are Finnish so we have always had sauna... we take a sauna every day, sometimes 2 when it’s really cold out.
Oh, you Finns….. your art is gorgeous, also.
Sitting in a sauna listening to this. I love getting my sauna in daily
Love that!
@@Highintensityhealth usually I meditate but, I made an exception today. Keep up the great content!
Lifted from 7th grade to 42 years old. Had an injury. Needed to do rehab. Started hopping in sauna for 20 minutes at 190 degree’s before exercising in pool for 30 minutes. Sometimes I’ll jump in whirlpool after pool for 15 minutes than back in pool to cool off. I fell in love with this routine. I do this 3 times a week and hike 3 times a week. I noticed my anxiety and stress started to be under control after doing the sauna and pool routine. With daily demand of work, kids, marriage, dogs that need to be walked this type of routine makes a difference. I don’t know if I’ll go back to weightlifting. I’m currently 46 and feel really good.
I love how excited you get about sharing health with others! Such a relief from the last couple years with the monotone drone of doctors, most of whom lack passion altogether
Five years ago, my 21 year old daughter and I were both coincidentally exposed to mold. (Different buildings). When we got our test results back, we went on to ebay and found a brand new, (box was open, so Costco wouldn’t allow the purchaser to return it) 3-seater infrared sauna. We got it for $900. I absolutely love it.
Because we were both so sick and highly sensitive, we could only tolerate 10-15 minutes at first. Neither of us would break a sweat, but when we’d get out, we’d feel exhausted for days! Anyhow... slowly our bodies adapted and we were both able to detoxify quite a bit of the mold. Still had to use binders, anti-fungals, low carb diet etc...
I love the sauna! I call it my sauna therapy. I sit in a dry sauna for 4 rounds 10 mins after every ten minutes I get into a cold tube. My body feels so amazing afterward. I wasn’t aware of all these health benefits, it’s amazing! I try and encourage everyone to sit in the sauna.
Sauna Therapy! Exactly. I do two sets: one 25 min. , cold shower and sit for 20 min. Then repeat.
Do you have link to cold tube? Or do you mean tub?
I was in the sauna blanket last Sunday, and out of curiosity (again) looking up articles and such on sauna benefits, but wanted more science behind it. Super freaking excited you posted this today
I sauna everyday about 175* for 15- 20 minutes. Immune system has benefited tremendously!!! One thing to note is the importance of an extreme electrolyte increase!!! Redmond Real Salt has done wonders for me as so much salt and minerals are lost in saunas.
Salt is a neurotoxin and dehydrator.
@@timmywitty1432 neurotoxin? Salt is essential for life! Without salt you die!! Dehydrated? Drink more water.
Most people don't need to supplement with salt, in fact execrating excess salt is one of the main benefits of a sauna.
@@dionysusnow wrong!

i used to say that people should not make videos without a script. I don't know if Mike uses a script. But it sure feels like he's talking skills are very sharp. He does not ramble and its very easy to understand what he is saying
When we aren't in lockdowns our local community gym has a steam room, sauna and spa in the price. I try and do 30-50 minutes 3-5 times a week. Love it.
I hope you turn this into a whole series of videos because I'm so curious about the actual science behind the benefits of heat.
OK OK! Will do.
You cook like a turkey 🦃 on thanks giving day thank you will do
Check out Rhonda Patrick, she is the queen of sauna science
I regularly sauna and I love all the health promotions. This was a great video. Thank you!
Hmmm..I've spent 20 years installing air conditioners in 120-160 degree attics every summer.
yeah im gonna say south florida is good on saunas.
Mike, I appreciate your enthusiasm! I’m so grateful for the information that you share with us.
In the mid 90’s I developed an autoimmune illness. At that time little was known so we had to learn by word of mouth calling strangers who knew a friend, who knew a friend.
Today we have RUclips and other online options. Thank you so much for your time and energy ❤️
I can see how you've grown into a great Podcaster over the past two years. Great job! And thank you fire great content.
I don’t always comment on your videos, but I do always appreciate them, and make sure to like them. Thanks for all of your research and sharing it with the world! A sauna, and a hot tub are on my list of things to get for the health of my family.
Baby boomer here. When I was young, there were established saunas you could go to, just for a sauna. Eight years old, and my 'big brother' introduced me to them. (big brother assoc.)We really need to bring those back!!
You're always so gracious with health knowledge. Thank you!
Thank You. As a person who doesn't exercise much. This is something I can do.
This is so fascinating. I've had bad circulation all my life & decided to get one of those wet ( perfect for deep conditioning coily hair), portable saunas. I also have chronic low back pain from an old accident. I adore my wet portable sauna. It's nice to feel my circulation getting a kick, temporarily removing my pain, & doing wonders for outside of my body too. I can't live without mine.
I love the sauna at the gym. Can’t wait to get one of my own. For now, for me, just a really hot bath where it causes my forehead to sweat for at least 20 min is good and thankfully has the same benifits as sauna. I’ve been doing sweat baths regularly multiple times a week for almost 10 years. It has improved my health remarkably. Actually has helped me overcome a horrible autoimmune issue. I add some Epsom salts sometimes for added benifits. I’ve recently in the last year or so added cold therapy in the form of daily 3-4 minute ice cold showers (~35 degrees), daily 30-45 min cold weather exposure (in winter) and weekly 5-7 minute ice baths (~36 degrees) every Saturday as well. All that, coupled with a good breath work routine (soma and wim hof), regular daily exercise (running and calisthenics), proper rest, good mental and emotional health practices, and of course a well balanced diet has all made it so I haven’t been sick in over a year. No covid for this dude. Take good care of your bodies my friends. You only get one of them in this life.
Love your content, clarity in presentation and enthusiasm. Keep up the good work 💪
Love the speaker’s demeanor. Excited but calm. Through and referenced information.
Love this information and hope you will continue to make more. I'm about to purchase one from Amazon.
Mike, I have two things I'd like you to read here:
1) When discussing sauna and heat therapy I wish more people would discuss the potential for hot bath use. Many people can not afford the thousands of dollars it takes to buy even just an infrared sauna. Hot blanket or portable infrared saunas bring the cost down, but still many could not afford it. Almost everyone has a bath and a hot water heater. I've been using hot bath for a few months now and I'm able to get the starting temp of the water as high as 112F. I'd love more insight on hot bath from folks like yourself.
2) Unrelated, but very important. I'd like your insight on APOE4.
Thank you,
Jon
I live in FINLAND and I go to my own steamy finish sauna twice à week. It’s very enjoyable and relaxing.
Oh yeah! Amazing
Very informative! I just bought one today and I wanted to know all the benefits and you answered almost every question I had
Great video Mike! Love my sauna 🧖♀️ followed by a jump in my creek ... other than the crayfish that pop out from under the rocks in the water I’m feelin awesome ❤️
Please continue the great work. It sincerely makes a difference
I'm going to echo what another person said here: I love when you get excited about a topic; it makes it feel even more worthwhile and compelling because when I'm already excited about the topic, the shared enthusiasm makes me all the more happy to be here. And an obvious cherry on top is it also helps concentrate valuable info in a compact frame of time.
Thank you as always, Mike! Stay passionate. :*)
I feel like this would apply to soaking in a hot bath as well. I’ve done a little research on Hypocrates and ancient Turkish, Roman, and Korean bath houses and have come to the realization that you can add so many things to the bath water to receive their therapeutic effects. Ideally herbs, by making a decoction of plant material, and pouring it into you bath you efficiently absorb the water soluble plant compounds in the water through your skin.
I’ve used things like pine to stimulate deep and heavy breathing, cleavers to stimulate lymphatic movement, and hibiscus to stimulate blood flow (and made beautiful red/pink water) all of these methods had noticeable effects ESPECIALLY the cleavers.
This way of bathing used to be well know and vastly practiced but has now been lost to history. It is well worth looking into.
When I was in the Peace Corps, being invited to your neighbor's sauna -- was the best treat. Ok, half the places I lived, I did not have an indoor bathroom xD. It's so nice in the winter (most of the time, we didnt have heat either hahaah). The sauna practices are very interesting, though - ie use of certain ointments including for healing. Your muscles and skin really feel great afterward. The hammam and saunas were such an interesting part of life in Ottoman, Soviet, and pre-Soviet regions.
I miss the sauna at the gym I used to attend. Thanks for the info!
Right on Mike! Just ordered the Evolve 20 from sunstream yesterday :)
This video was so helpful and informative thank you!
Yesssss. I have one and am promising to use it at least 4 nights a week in the past couple of months.
Loved your video. All we have is a hottub and we use that for an hour a day (sometimes twice a day) and that is 103 degrees. We love for all the reasons you give plus sweating out our body's toxins. We are Keto /Omnivore /Carnivore and intermittent fasting and love the effects of all of this on our body. We are 62 and 60 years old and look and feel 20 years younger. We never had time for all of this plus exercise when we were working. Thank you for your video.
@@poollife777 no we do not, we have a bromine hot tub and bromine indoor pool and love them both. We also try to shower after the pool and especially the hot tub to wash off the toxins that you have just sweated out.
Thank you for this video. Very appreciated.
Great content! Thank you for your passion! I LOVVVVVEEE IT!!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽❤❤
Heck yeah!!
I've always been into saunas but never really went into them much! I needed this today.. I signed up with my YMCA and I'm going to try and get in their dry sauna at least 2x a week. My ultimate goal is to purchase a sauna one day. Thank you for this well educate video. Best one out of all of the videos I've binged today
I loved when I had a membership at the YMCA!! They had a women’s locker room with a hot tub and sauna in it. I couldn’t believe how mentally healthy and physically I felt.
Thank you so much for all the effort and knowledge you share with us. Much gratitude to you. Love the science! Cldnt use sauna for a while due to stress but starting to use it now each weekend. Thank you. Love and blessings
I absolutely love your content Mike. Love how you always have science backed information.
Could you do a video about legumes? All the longevity researchers seem to be recommending a low animal protein diet. I see even Dr. G has changed his tune saying they should be included in the diet as long as they are pressure cooked to remove lectins. What’s your opinion on the current research?
Awesome video man, I’d like to know more about the detox benefits of sauna.
I love your enthusiasm and excitement to share this potentially life saving information. ❤️☮️🍀😊
Excellent video. Thank you for sharing. I will definitely be going to the sauna at least 3x a week now.
I love your enthusiasm. Great information. Loved the video.
Amazing channel love it. Thank you for all the great content.
I have mould overgrowth which is causing ezcema... Using a sauna helps sweat out the toxins and is helping my ezcema too! Love my sauna blanket. Thank you for sharing the other benefits 😊
Thanks, Mike! Great information!
Sauna and gym are some good perks in the military. I miss that. Planet Fitness and the likes aren't even 10% of the quality of some of the worst gyms we had. PF gym is better than the weight bench we built out of cardboard boxes in the middle of the desert. I'll give em that win.
Bummer! Try to find a sauna that's open, more will open soon I'm sure!
100%! Unfortunately many bases are getting rid of their saunas.
Join a ymca in your area they should have sauna and pools, steam rooms. Just ask before joining.
Great session thank you. Would you consider going a bit deeper into any benefits infrared saunas have over the more traditional types, one day? Thanks again.
So grateful you have a sauna blanket shout out. I ordered one until I can afford to build my own. I look forward to the benefits you speak of. Gracias!!
What do you think of it? I use a public one, but would like to get one some day. Sometimes I think the blankets would be nice from a cost and space perspective, if they function the same.
@@amperage8032 I love the blanket. It makes you sweat for sure. I do need to use it at its highest setting though to achieve the sweat. It is defiantly comforting to lay inside it. 😂
Yes do more sauna videos! 🧖🏽
Superb video ... lots of great information. I just love sitting in a sauna and relaxing and also having a nice chat with loads of people, that there is a lot of great health benefits is also wonderful.
Thanks for the information just found your channel.
Glad this subject came up. I was thinking about getting a Higher Dose IR sauna blanket.
Outstanding analysis on the benefits of using a sauna. Thanks
More videos on this topic please!
Good job brotha. Thx.
awesome stuff
This is probably why I love being hot, feeling like I'm baking, and the summer. Is there a way to create a sauna effect at home in the shower? I cannot always get to a spa for a real sauna and I don't have a sauna at home. Amazing information and video. Thank you @highintensityhealth!
Excellent to have a knowledge of the benefits . I do a mid range (to high )intensity gym , some bag work , yoga cool down then into either sauna or steam room for 30 mins. I do a cold shower after 20 mins and at end. I absolutely love it I always instinctively knew the benefits were expansive over what I KNEW , SO THANKYOU and I will pass the information on Scott🇦🇺
So much great information, thank you! :)
YOU ARE A BRIGHT YOUNG MAN! God bless! Keep it up! Topics of interest: cancer, fluoride, pineal gland, high blood pressure reduction, leaky gut syndrome, osteoporosis,mind/body health connection. Thank you!
Thank you Mike!
Great video bro, I read up alot on saunas and I heard about benefits that are not commonly talked about.
Lol here in Finland you buy pretty much any apartment, and there is a sauna included. At least you have an access to the common sauna where you can reserve your time of the week
That's fantastic!
Nice! No wonder Finland is always ranked "the happiest country" in the world!
@@DashingPartyCrasher one of the most civilised countries too. I’m not Finnish.
@@DashingPartyCrasher doesn't it have one of the highest suicide rates per capita
@@GalacticEgg it's THAT great there.
THANK YOU... Great video!
Thank youuuu. I was questionning my sauna blanket. Appreciate the science Mike.
What is a sauna blanket? I will look it up.
@@kristivice5537 I use the Higher dose blanket. I love it. Here's a review I liked ruclips.net/video/yaEquDfCGj0/видео.html , the @ketotwins also made a few reviews.
Very helpful explanation...Thank you 🙏
As a Finn who has a sauna I can tell you 90c is the perfect temp. (60 is a steam room, 120 is horrific).
Sounds about right! 190 F is perfect for me
I Sauna + Cold Shower daily after my workouts. You come out feeling like a warrior 💪
But cold therapy within 4 hours after a workout shuts off the healthy inflammation response needed for muscle recovery and repair.
Love this,v thank you!
Awesome- thanks !
Absolutely loved this, I also watch Rich Roll, Tom Bilyeu, and Ben Greenfield. I love nutritional and exercise content so whatever you make I WILL WATCH, this is my regular entertainment. Thanks a Bunch👍
Mine too, fitness and health is my general lifestyle basically. And I love the sauna 🥵😊 So neat to see your comment.
New to channel and liking what I get from it. Lost 80 lbs in 2020 and my health improved exponentially. Some of what I hear on your channel I am experiencing in my health changes.
My only feedback is the "over scientific" explanations lose me. Dumbing down is actually good to do. It allows me to transfer knowledge to some degree vs.no degree.
I got very lost in the scientific verbiage. But I love sauna!
@@jodycourt agreed! I use the hot tub which is more available to me.
Excellent presentation especially with a lot of updates that I didn’t know about had my IR since 2008. I preach about mine to everybody so you’ve given me a lot more ammo great job Mike thanks a lot.. talk about no excuses there’s never an excuse that you can’t lay down in the sauna.
Thanks for the knowledge! Peace.
Anytime!
I m getting a sauna blanket ( not enough space in my home) , cannot wait for it to arrive!
I used to be a sewing teacher. People would ask me what is the best machine to buy? My answer: The one you can afford and actually use. I found an incredible deal on a Infra-red sauna blanket. I could afford it and use it. 😊
One of the most important sauna use tips is to use it and you will find your way by listening to your body. I have a wood burning Finnish sauna and sauna about 180 days per year. You begin to develop a cycle to the seasons which carries over year by year. Typically I start to regularly sauna in the fall and I’m going in daily by winter. As my seasonal tolerance builds I’m taking my longest, hottest saunas by late January into February. At that point it’s daily, often a minimum of 5 rounds daily with long sessions at about 200F. It is also the period of coldest rests where outside temperatures are often in the -30 to -40F range. Sometimes you don’t want to work though and you just want to relax or take a chill out of your body. The more you become familiar with yourself and how you respond to sauna, the more options you have when using it. Just put the time in and it will happen naturally.
I would love to hear your thoughts on the Niacin with sauna detox.
Thanks for all you do.
My first time here. Great video.
Damn dude you explain this really well I appreciate your videos man. Thanks for posting
Great information. I try to use the dry sauna 4 -5 times per week.
We have the infrared sauna at home, full spectrum . Although I’ve never reached 190 degrees , at 130 degrees Fahrenheit I’m sweating bullets.
💕 ❤️ 💗 love this! I’m a fan 👋🏽
Awesome I learned a lot
thank you Mike, and yes please to more videos on sauna
I've just started weight training and sauna after, and it's made difference to my health, I have more energy and I do light my routine of cardiovascular, weight training, then sauna and cold showers before and after
You are doing a great presentation and the information is fabulous, just a little suggestion, if your white board is slightly tilted back on the top the glare will reduce greatly.
My wife and I have been doing hot yoga in our pollytunnel followed by a cold rinse off while we water the veg. Its euphoric and cost very little to set up 😁
Thank you I greatly appreciated your videos. I have found eucalyptus oils helps very much too. Please do a video on eucalyptus oil.
20 minutes a day right after workout ❤️ best thing ever ❤️
Thank you! Great content as always. And please do make that video detailing when and how long is best. I am currently alternating Joov one day, infrared sauna the next. Joov before my workout, sauna after. Both always before I break my fast. I'm not sure where I really got the idea that that was how I should do it and would love to maximize my results.
Cold shower or swim after the heat.
