One thing that really gets my goat is when people make excuses for not exercising because they say they don’t like to sweat.
Sorry but that doesn’t fly with me.
Especially when you consider all the FANTASTIC health benefits that sweating provides for you!
Here’s what I mean—here are 7 reasons why sweating is good for you:
1- Sweating helps your body maintain proper temperature and prevents you from overheating.
Yes, that’s me sweating like crazy finishing the Empire State Marathon last October. Sweating is the reason I didn’t collapse from heat exhaustion or heat stroke running 26.2 miles.
2- It cleans your pores, which helps eliminate acne. Pimples come from within, and all the acne washes, lotions, and toners can’t change that. You have to clean your pores from inside out.
3- Sweating expels disease-causing toxins and wastes from your body. If you don’t get rid of these, not only can they make you sick but they will give you the most horrible BO that even deodorant can’t cover up.
4- It also kills viruses and bacteria that cannot survive in temperatures over 98.6°F.
5- Sweating and hydrating with water help flush out your kidneys and prevent kidney stones. Anyone that has even been on their knees in excruciating pain with kidney stones will tell you this is a good idea.
6- Your sweat acts as an antibiotic on your skin for scratches and insect bites.
7- Sweating improves blood circulation, relieves stress and promotes relaxation. The ripple effect of these can be enormous, including lower blood pressure, weight loss, stronger immune function and better sleep!
So there you have it—7 great reasons to work up a sweat!

@Chris – When you supplement with a probiotic like Super Shield it ensures that your body has the appropriate level of good bacteria in your intestines. This promotes good digestion, immunity, and general wellness.
@Robert – Thank you for your awesome feedback! Have a great day!
@Martha – It could be your medications, you should definitely do some research on that. Also some people may sweat less or more than others, everyone is different. I’m sorry we couldn’t be more helpful. Have a great day!
Hi Sherry. I got to wondering what happens each day when all these new probiotics join the mob down below? Chris
Ms. Brescia, I do thoroughly appreciate this info! You see, it wasn’t until I developed a chronic illness and cancer that I came to the realization of just how beneficial sweating truly was and is to my health. There was a time when I loathed sweating. But know I look forward to it! I live in southern Arizona and can’t wait for the 80 – 100 degree temperatures to return so I can get out in the sunshine and perspire. Doing this helps me maintain my sense of well-being. So Yeah, I love a Gooooood Sweat!!!!
