Sweating Removes Deadly Chemicals From The Body

SweatingSayer Ji – In a day and age where chemical and radiation exposures from industrial pollution are ubiquitous and virtually unavoidable, it behooves us all to find ways to minimize expoasure to them as well as to reduce their complex toxicities.
