After that intense workout or just a simple walk, do you notice sweat dripping off of your face? Although it is a common thought that sweating is bad for your skin, in fact, it is the opposite. Sweating has several benefits to both your skin and the wellbeing of your body. Next time you are at the gym or walking around the track don’t sweat it if you notice your shirt becoming saturated, rather embrace it as your body is performing its duty. What is Sweat? Sweating, also known as perspiration, is your body signaling that you need a cool down. Your body begins to sweat once it gets warmer than the average body temperature of 98.6 degrees. Once this occurs, your brain signals to the hypothalamus, responsible for controlling temperature, to begin the cooling down process. As a result of the body increasing in temperature, sweat acts as a cool down method for the body to return to normal temperature. Sweat consists of mainly water, with small amounts of ammonia, urea, salts, and sugars. The way in which sweat exits the body is through small holes called pores. Now that we have the basic understanding of what sweat is and how it leaves us, we can move on to ways sweating benefits the skin. 1. Detoxifies Body As stated above, sweat is comprised of mostly water along with a few chemicals. As the sweat leaves your body and enters the air, the chemicals found in sweat are also leaving. Along with releasing the chemicals, perspiring also rids of substances such as alcohol, cholesterol, and salt. The body is capable of releasing these potential pore-clogging toxins. After a workout, your body will have rid of some of the toxins that have been building up allowing for your pores to open. 2.Clears Blemishes Since sweating opens the pores and allows for flowing out of sweat, it reduces the likelihood of noticing zits on your face. Many toxins have the ability to clog your pores, however, perspiring allows for the pores to become unclogged and the toxins to be released. Pollution, dead skin cells, makeup along with other toxins are examples of substances that might be clogging your pores. This is why it is crucial to clean your face properly before entering a workout, as well of afterwards, to ensure that your sweat can freely release. 3. Fighting Germs It has been studied that sweat contains a natural antibiotic called, Dermcidin. This particular antibiotic is naturally found in sweat and aids the immune system in fighting off any potential threats. Dermcidin helps fight off any E-coli and Staphylococcus aurues, bacteria that causes acne. Overall, sweating can help prevent sickness as it fends off germs and boost your immune system. 4. Reduces Kidney Stone Risk Although not directly correlated to the appearance of your skin, sweating can reduce the chances of developing kidney stones. Now how is that? Sweating helps release salt along with helping to retain calcium within the bones. As a result, it reduces the salt and calcium build up in kidneys and urine, which causes kidney stones. People who tend to sweat a lot, or engage in strenuous activity, tend to drink more liquids also aiding in the prevention of kidney stones. 5. Mood Booster Last, but certainly not least, sweating makes people happy. Perspiration releases endorphins in the brain that make people feel good. It has been shown that people who workout regularly feel more satisfied and happier once finishing the workout. Along with being labeled, the “feel good” endorphin, sweating can also ease pain. When the brain signals our endorphins, it also targets any area of the body that might be experiencing pain or discomfort. Recap Now that you are aware of the benefits of sweating, you also have to consider the proper techniques for washing your face after your workout. Although there are benefits, there are also downsides. This is why it is imperative to take action as soon as possible once the workout is complete. Leaving sweat on the skin’s surface for too long can cause adverse effects and result in the opposite goal of clear skin. In order to properly wash your face, make sure that you are avoiding common face-washing mistakes. All in all, sweating has many skin benefits along with long-term health benefits. In order to optimize these results, ensure to engage in regular activity to increase sweat glands and also to increase your overall health.
我娃大了后学会了一句网红中文，“有一种冷叫妈妈觉得你冷”
所以我坚决不要夏天去欧洲热的地方，上次六月份去的意大利把我们全家都热疯了，餐馆博物馆都没空调。只有住的地方有，后来家里小朋友那么爱吃餐馆的都要求回自己租的condo吃饭让我做，因为condo里又凉快又宽敞还可以畅饮冰水太舒服了。
所以说因为习惯，能源，环保还是政策规定都是表面，终极原因还是省钱
关键还没有蚊子，偶尔有点小飞虫。
国内人怕不出汗，他们觉得不出汗对身体不好
要出汗还不容易， 关键要有出不出汗选择， 不是只有汗流浃背一条路
这种出汗对身体好都是民科理论，深层是阿Q自我安慰。 他们也会说多闻厕所氨气和二氧化硫能促进肢体新陈代谢，提高免疫力。 但是看看中国人移民海外后有了选择，他们开不开空调厌恶不厌恶湿热。
我在美国北方呆了很多年，也适应了，但还是更习惯中国南方。对南方人来说，冬天零上5度10度那根本就不算什么啊，只要注意着装，就可以出去跑步，逛街，去公园散步。在家有地暖，开空调或电暖也可以，穿一件羊毛衫就可以了。在美国北方，冬天大多数时候都闷在家里，当然比加拿大还是要好上许多。
生理上人体排毒是靠肾脏和肝脏完成，皮肤生理构造没有排毒功能。 大量出汗存粹是身体发出警告，体温太高危及生命，需要排出汗液带走热量
华人一旦移民海外有了空调选择，就没人去相信这种出汗排毒的民科。海外网站都是抱怨太热。
国内政府规定冬夏各有温度限制，夏天不能低于26摄氏度，冬天忘了，为了环保。然后商家也能省钱。吃个午饭经常大汗淋漓。不过那都是中央空调的地方。如果是各房间的空调可以调控到你的温度，但是要花点时间
国内胖子少，这个问题不大。下面是我星期天在上海拍的（我刚从上海回来），那天上海最高气温超过30度了，商场里的空调应该就是26度。
真的
是的，这也是我最受不了国内的两大问题。夏天回国真是受罪，还有南方的蚊虫。 其实国内人口多的地区，其它各方面条件都很不错，但是气候并不好。南方很多地方和我们在美国一提到佛州德州就诟病的气候差不多。
前两年夏天回国 亲戚招待我们吃火锅 选了露天座位 明明可以选室内对着空调的位置 问说是 室内抽烟太多 空气不好 坐外面有风扇 不热。。。 一顿火锅吃下来 真的是汗流浃背 非常难受 完全没有食欲
多环保呀
你肯定没经历过北京下雪了首都机场不开暖气，冻得怀疑人生
国内冬天很多饭店里热死，怎么解释？是多开暖气政府会给100万？
Re。在美国生活的人肉吃太多，耐冷不耐热。美国医疗条件不错，人均寿命也没多长，所以多吃肉也不知道是不是好事情
非得跟美国一样室内常年68度，头上大冷气吹着、办公桌下小暖气开着，人均碳排万年领头羊，才彰显大国气派是吧，一个破空调还给您阴阳怪气上了
更猛的是个个长袖长裤，有的还戴得住口罩，不服不行。
人在不同的环境中能自我调节的，想当年我们高中夏天40度的傍晚，湿热，70人左右的高中生窝在教室里自习，没有风扇，空调就更别想了，热得只能用书本扇风。
哎 你不说都忘了这事了 的确很冻人
我娃热的每天都要跟酒店要冰来吃，也shock到别人 😂
很多年以前？ 现在瑞幸咖啡一杯里多半杯都是冰!
为省钱。 国内还是不如美国资源丰富。 说怕冷，其实都是借口，如果是免费的你看他开不开。冬天国内公共场所暖气很微弱，他们又突然不怕冷了。
北京四月下旬就开始夏天那种热法，一次也是这个季节在首都机场坐国内航班候机，给我热的坐立不安， 但是周围的人都很平静， 我还傻乎乎的问机场工作人员怎么没空调，人家笑而不语看着我。还好衣服是重叠穿法，里面是件短袖，不然还真够呛
是空调的问题，不知道是功率不够还是不是中央空调？ 深圳和香港湿度一样吧，香港室内明显体感舒服很多
虽然国内人怕冷，但是我上个月观察火车站不开空调的时候，大家都很热的样子。不知道为什么不舍得开。
可是香港的胖子也多啊，接近于美国。
香港衞生防護中心的數據顯示，本港15至84歲人口中，有32.6%屬於肥胖，當中近四成為男性，超過四分之一為女性。整體而言，逾半港人屬於超重或肥胖。
香港明明是瘦子多
我夏天是绝对不会离开南加州的
32.6%的肥胖率很高了。对比一下，日本是4%，大陆是16%，而美国是40%。
一个地区的胖子多了，整体上对冷气的要求就会更高一些。如果反过来，冷气就不能打得过低，否则胖子是舒服了，可别人在空调房里就得加衣服了。
北加州不是更凉。。。南加州热死了
回国看看，城市里肥胖比比皆是，越年轻越肥 外卖小哥和农村倒是有精瘦
阴冷体质需要看医生，是不是生理不调，内分泌不足。
国外夏天22度空调因为胖子多，冬天21度恒温因为瘦子多。
说来说去还是更注重面子。机场建的高大上，看起来多气派，实用性如何不重要，而且当初建的越大油水越多领导越喜欢。南方乡下的大房子也是，一家比一家气派，但冬天在室内还是穿着臃肿，是不舍得全屋取暖的，但舍得装修的富丽堂皇。主要全国都认可并看重这种面子，没有人觉得热着或冻着有什么问题。
你的南加州是内陆帝国Peasant待的地方，别人的南加州是靠海的有钱人待的地方，比北加州舒服多了。
免费也不开啊。我家因为跟老人空调不可调谐的问题，我只能带孩子住酒店。一个月的五星酒店够交多少电费了？父母的相关费用一直是我出，所以谈不上不心疼子女的钱。
两边的肥胖标准肯定不一样啊
Re. 国内很多机场也是，都是那种挑高型的建筑，热得不要不要的。
北加州夏天刚好太冷了，湾区又干还无聊 我要的是二十几度海风吹拂
九月太阳露头的那两周去Monterey还不错
