The Benefits of Hot & Cold Therapy

The next thing I recommend is hot and cold therapy. Now, saunas and cold plunges sound like a lot, but even if you don't have a sauna or a cold plunge, if you have a bathtub, you can take a really hot bath, or you can fill your bathtub up with cold water. That's what I do. Now, ideally, you could do 30 minutes in a sauna three or four times a week. In fact, in a Finnish study, they looked at thousands of people who did saunas. They do saunas a lot there. And they found that if you did 30 minutes of a hot sauna four times a week or more, you had a 47% reduction in your risk of having a heart attack or dying, which is not so bad for a sauna. Plus, it increases something called heat shock proteins, which repair old, damaged proteins in your body. It activates your innate immune system, it improves your heart rate variability, reduces stress, helps with weight loss, detoxification. There's so many benefits, so. And the Cult therapy does a lot of benefits too. It activates dopamine and mitochondrial function through brown fat. So there's a lot of benefits that are scientifically proved.
