How does the Heatwave help with Calories Consumption and Weight Control?
In the text book of Medical Physiology you will find that producing one gram of sweat requires 0.586 calories. The GIMA citation goes on to state that a moderately conditioned person can easily sweat off 500 grams in a normal sauna, consuming nearly 300 calories equivalent to running 2-3 miles. Whilst a heat conditioned person can easily sweat off 600 to 800 calories with no adverse effects the weight/water loss will be regained by rehydration with water, but the calories consumed will stay off. Since an infra-red thermal system should generate two to three times the amount of sweat produced in a conventional sauna the implications for increased calorie consumption are impressive. To give you an example a rowing machine burns off about 600 calories in 30 minutes.
