Cleanses for Winter: how do they work?
A toxin, in a scientific context, is a substance of biological origin that causes damage to the health of a living being, either by contact or absorption, typically by interaction with biological macromolecules such as enzymes and receptors.
The sweat glands, on the other hand, have the ability to filter out of the blood some toxic substances resulting from metabolism, such as urea. Sweating is controlled by the sympathetic autonomic nervous system.
In the human body, sweat is a way to eliminate nitrogen waste and also act to regulate the temperature, which should be between 36°C and 36.8°C, suitable for the functioning of organs. Thus, when an individual feels hot from exercise or when the environment is warmer, more sweat is produced.
The amount of sweat a person wipes can be related to genetic factors and weather conditions. Also, a person who is overweight has a tendency to sweat more.
