Excess weight is one of the most widespread problems linked to modern lifestyles.
Obesity is a condition characterised by an excessive build-up of body fat. It is one of the main risk factors for many diseases: heart and respiratory diseases, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure and much more [1]. Even relatively mild excess weight is dangerous and should not be underestimated. A simple belly, in men and women alike, signals that the vital organs are already wrapped in a layer of visceral fat and that fat storage around the abdomen has begun [2].
Why, despite all the diets, the food pyramid and exercise, is it so hard to maintain the right weight?
Our body harbours substances that work against weight loss: endocrine disruptors [3], substances that interfere with the endocrine glands and alter the action of various hormones. These chemicals are also called obesogens because, by crossing cell membranes and accumulating in fatty tissue, they are thought to promote obesity by altering lipid metabolism.
By harnessing the power of far infrared rays, Sauna Smarty helps us free ourselves of these substances through sweating [4]. In a half-hour session you can lose up to 600 ml of sweat through the increase in heart rate, cardiac output and metabolism, burning up to 600 kcal.
