Sweaty Activities

  • Are there supplements that boost energy so I don’t feel zapped after a hard cardio workout? After a really hard workout I end up completely drained. I often fall asleep for a few hours.
  • Can I use essential oils in my bath?
  • How do I get myself to sweat? I haven't sweated for years. What about an infrared mat?
  • I'm wondering how much sweating we need to do. All my life (even way before my thyroid issues) I haven't sweat much except for my face. Do I need to figure out a way to sweat all over, or is my sweaty face enough?
  • I've been researching the Sunlighten infrared spa and have lots of questions. Do you truly recommend this brand? Can it actually help when little else has? If so, how?
  • My doctor told me to stop strenuous exercise. I was boxing 2-3 days/week, doing low-impact interval training 2 days/week. Now I only walk and do yoga. I really miss more strenuous workouts. Can I add them back in a few days a week?
  • Sometimes when I exercise, I can feel more tired and my body gets more inflamed. Do you have any recommendations to help with this? And what's the best way to sweat?
  • What are the potential reasons for excessive sweating? I've struggled with this my whole life, and I've only been given a topical solution of aluminum. Do you have any other things to try?
  • What are your thoughts on using infrared saunas while following the Reset?
  • What kind of workouts are optimal for people with Hashimoto's? I've read that lower resistance workouts that don't exhaust the adrenals, like yoga and Pilates, are ideal - but I love to lift weights and spin. Could these activities be doing more harm?
  • What sauna do you recommend?
  • What should I do if I am not sweating much when I am in a sauna?
  • What should I do if I do not sweat much during my sauna session?
