thromboses. I don't know if you remember—I can’t remember who he
was. There was a reporter who was embedded in either Afghanistan or
Iraq just kind of curled up in a ball and got dehydrated. He got DVTs
because of inactivity, okay, because he wasn’t walking around. And that
clot was thrown to his heart and he died. He was 44-years-old. I know
he was in his early 40s when it happened. Very usual but, again,
inactivity is bad for you. And so the converse is true I think. Activity is
good for you. And that’s why that specific form of exercise helps push—
helps assist the lymphatic system in returning that fluid back to the
venous system.
Ty: Dr. Sahni, talk about far infrared saunas. I know that you’re a
big proponent of far infrareds. Talk about the effect that this can
have on cancer.
Dr. Irvin Sahni: So far infrared saunas, the way they work is relatively
simple. They exploit or take advantage of a portion of the
electromagnetic spectrum that basically increases the temperature of
the body, creates hypothermia without exposing the body to some of the
negative portion of the spectrum which we know is the ultraviolet
spectrum. Go out in the sun too much you can get skin cancer
especially if you don’t wear sunscreen and you’re light complected. So
far infrared sauna takes a part of that spectrum that creates heat but not
necessarily damage in the way that being out in the sun does. I think the
Indians were probably—you know, the American Indians were people
who were doing these more ritualistic heat treatments on themselves
long before far infrared saunas were around kind of. Maybe they didn’t
understand the science behind it but they knew it was good for you. But
basically what it does is it raises your body temperature and then your
body has to release that heat. The way we release our heat is by
sweating and that sweating helps—the sweat helps carry the heat away
from the body. So by stimulating that mechanism people don’t realize
this but you excrete just as much urea, okay, through your skin, maybe
more. I’d have to go back and look up the numbers, but a significant
amount of toxins are excreted through your skin as they are in your
urine or your stool. And in some cases probably specific toxins even
more. And so by exposing yourself to a reasonable timeframe and a
reasonable level, a safe level of heat you can just basically stimulate
your body to sort of accelerate that excretion of toxins and you can
make that happen faster.
The other reason a far infrared sauna is so useful is that normal cells
are able to withstand heat because of their normal anatomy compared
to the abnormal anatomy of say a cancer cell especially in relation to it’s
vascular supply. And so a cancer cell doesn’t do well in a hyper thermic
situation. This has been shown in mainstream science to be the case.
