I think swimming is quite good for people with joint issues?
@lil-chick
In a cold climate saunas are enjoyable and they may provide some benefit, I'm just skeptical of many of the detox through sweating claims.
I think dancing is good.

I think one of the problems I have is that I need something that is yearly so that I can get into shape for it and stay in shape for it. I'm just not as adaptable as I once was. Maybe that's another reason old people move south.

Does anyone else itch like hell after sweating? ACK I sweated a lot yesterday and I was up for at least an hour in the middle of the night last night. Still itchy this morning. The itching is worst around my torso. The more I scratch, the more it itches. I had to force myself to stop.
What is the mechanism of the itch? Personally, it seems to me that VA is mobilized while sweating but doesn't completely leave the skin? Perhaps it is re-absorbed? Maybe it just does harm on the way out?
A rash from contact with VA's, almost like getting poison ivy?
I took off my sweaty clothes immediately after working outside, made and ate dinner, and then took a soapy shower. I suppose I could have showered immediately.
I wish I knew some OTC cure for it. baking soda? clay? Would a soaking bath be better than a shower?

I put a bit of clay/water solution on it and when it dried I had a fit of itchyness. And I turned all red in the area. So I took the clay off with a warm towel. Then I went outside and got sweaty again. Feels good now, LOL. Wish I could see the rhyme and reason.

Since I have Sebderm, yes I itch like crazy. Sometimes it even burns. But I got kinda used to it now after like 5 years. My guess would also be that sweating pulls toxins out of the skin.

I used to think saunas were a great idea, that sweating was a wonderful detoxification method. I changed my mind though when I researched detoxification more. Our body is designed to excrete toxins in bile and urine. We just don't excrete many toxins in sweat but we do lose valuable electrolytes. We excrete almost no vitamin A in sweat. Sauna heat is also not great for men either.
Hey Tim, where does your info for these two statements come from? Can you explain more"
- "We excrete almost no vitamin A in sweat."
- "Sauna heat is also not great for men either."

Sweating could be good since the increase of body temperature raises interferon gamma and this cytokine facilitates spending of both A and D and boosts metabolism.
