My Mother was adopted as an infant. She later met her birth parents only to discover that a nasty gene carrying the marker for Cystic Fibrosis came along with her birth father’s family. His wife also carried the gene. The result is two of his ten children have full blown Cystic Fibrosis (CF). 

I have, as yet, needed testing for this gene however, when I decide to have children, I will need to be. Both my partner and I need to be tested. If one of us carries the gene this will be alright. If both of us do we can expect at least one of our offspring will develop CF.

CF is a chronic, progressive, and frequently fatal acidic condition of the elimination organs. It affects the respiratory system, particularly the lungs, bowels, urinary tract system, reproductive organs and the skin. 

The alkaloid glands, salivary, stomach and small and large intestines produce and secrete alkaline compounds. They excrete sodium bicarbonate to protect the alkaline design of the body. This acidic condition can affect any organ or organ system in the body. However, it primarily affects the respiratory, digestive, and reproductive tracts beginning in childhood and even into young adulthood.

Cystic fibrosis is a genetic, progressive acidic condition of latent acidosis that begins with fatigue, then congestion, then retention, irritation, mucous build up, inflammation, induration, ulceration, degeneration and can cause a painful early death. There are a couple of ways to get relief from the symptoms of CF. 

If you concentrate on healing the intestinal villi of your small intestines, or build healthy stem cells and red blood cells and discover how to hyper-perfuse the blood and tissues with alkalinity through what you drink and eat – even by controlling stress – all aid in symptom relief from CF. 

Finally, you can open the channels of elimination through your largest organ – your skin. This is where Far Infrared sauna therapy comes in.

When you work up a good sweat in a Far Infrared sauna you help your body rid itself of nasty toxins like mercury, lead and other contaminants that have accumulated within you over time. Also, by intensely sweating while experiencing Far Infrared you benefit your heart, lungs, kidneys and other organs essential for survival. 

Infrared has also been proven to promote pain relief, muscle relaxation, and emotional tranquility. For people suffering from CF Far Infrared sauna therapy can be particularly therapeutic.

Our skin is our largest and major organ of elimination however many people do not sweat on a regular basis. This is why repeated use of a Far Infrared sauna, and it’s gentle warming heat, promotes perspiration and slowly releases toxins via skin elimination, which can help reduce your toxic load quite significantly. 

The use of sweating as a form of detoxification is downplayed by modern medicine, yet it has been valued as a form of cleansing since ancient times. Traditional saunas use steam and a great deal of uncomfortable hot air to promote a heavy sweat. 

FIR is a great alternative and option which can significantly expedite the detoxification process. It heats your body’s tissues several inches deep, which can enhance your natural metabolic processes. It also improves circulation and helps oxygenate your tissues. 

The difference between an Infrared Sauna and the traditional Finnish-style saunas is that the latter heats you up from the outside in. Traditional saunas only heat the surrounding air. Whereas Far Infrared saunas heat you from the inside out, raising your body’s core temperature resulting in a deeper, more cleansing sweat. 

It’s said that using an infrared sauna will cause you to produce a sweat that is composed of 20% toxins, compared to only 3% when using a traditional sauna.

As your body temperature rises, it will automatically perspire to release salty liquid from your sweat glands to help cool you down. This is controlled by your autonomic nervous system. However, certain emotions, such as anxiety, anger, embarrassment, or fear, can prompt you to sweat more. 

Since exercise raises your body temperature, sweating associated with exercise is a sign that you’re exerting yourself and enjoying the many benefits that exercise offers. However, sweating in and of itself may also be beneficial.

Far Infrared sauna therapy increases blood and lymphatic circulation while opening up the skins pores in order to eliminate excess dietary, environmental and metabolic acids from the body’s tissues. Far Infrared sauna therapy is also a passive form of exercise which will cause you to profusely sweat aiding in the removal of any latent tissue acid. 

For truly successful results and relief from the symptoms of CF it is suggested using the sauna for at least thirty minutes a day to start. Later you can additional minutes as is comfortable for you. For those who suffer from CF the relief will be noticed almost immediately. Far Infrared sauna therapy is a wonderful tool in your arsenal for a much improved quality of life.

I am glad infrared saunas have developed the way they have, because I couldn’t imagine my life without the benefits they provide, like deep sleep, lower blood pressure, less joint pain, weight loss, and a boosted immune system. Here at SaunaCloud I sell saunas that are some of the best history has offered. My far infrared saunas use advanced ceramic-carbon combination heaters for an amazing sauna experience.
