Is There 'Good' Sweat and 'Bad' Sweat? Here is How to Tell Them Apart

For our final informative news segment today, we have prepared a look at "good sweat" and "bad sweat."

In this sweltering weather, sweat just pours out of you even when you are sitting completely still.

Since fighting fire with fire is a common concept, it is easy to think that sweating a lot is good for your health, but there is actually such a thing as good sweat and bad sweat.

Let us take a look at the article together.

Even when doing the same activity, some people sweat profusely while others sweat slowly and evenly.

According to the Japan Center for Aging Research, this difference can be explained in terms of bad sweat and good sweat.

If sweat drips down without being able to evaporate, it actually fails to provide a sufficient cooling effect.

When sweat appears too quickly and in large amounts, it becomes salty and sticky.

Sweat that flows slowly and evenly can truly be considered a refreshing, good sweat.

Naturally, there are ways to produce good sweat.

Exercising regularly is said to be helpful.

It is also a good idea to drink water in advance before you feel thirsty.
