To be able to enjoy the health benefits of a tranquil and restorative time at home while detoxifying your body is now an easily accessible luxury with a far infrared sauna.
Saunas provide you with health benefits in just a few minutes a day, leaving you feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.
You may have heard about ‘infrared’ and ‘regular saunas,’ and the differences between the two. We get questions everyday here at Vitality about this and also why the Zen Far infrared sauna is different to others.
In this article we will dive into answering these questions and let you know about
- evidence-based truths of how infrared saunas can really benefit your health
- help clear up some myths around infrared saunas
- explain the benefits and points of difference of a zen far infrared sauna
Regular saunas vs infrared saunas
Traditional saunas heat the air around you, whereas as infrared saunas use infrared lamps to warm you more directly.
Traditional saunas normally operate at around 150 F (65 degrees C) to 180 F (82 degrees C) and some people find this too hot to handle for more than a couple of minutes, if at all.
Although these saunas certainly help you to sweat and can provide warmth to your body and a ‘feel good’ feeling, we need to remember that sweating does not necessarily give you actual health benefits (keep reading to discover the facts) like fat loss or better skin, for example.
Infrared saunas function at a much lower temperature of 100 F (37 degrees C) to 130 F (54 degrees C) which makes it more tolerable in increasing your duration of use, plus actually enjoying the experience (you want it to help reduce stress, not create stress, right!)

Juicing with Kidney Disease: Is it Safe?
Juicing is more popular than ever among people who care about their health, and with good reason. Juicing is a great way to take in extra nutrients with less effort and great taste. However, people with chronic kidney disease need to strongly consider any dietary changes. Is juicing good for your kidney health?
Kidney Disease and Your Diet
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a condition where the kidneys lose function over time. This can be caused by many things, but the two most common causes are high blood pressure and diabetes. As kidney function decreases, symptoms develop that including fluid buildup, increased blood pressure, and the buildup of wastes and toxins that the kidney typically remove without trouble.
With chronic kidney disease, many substances that are normally harmless can build up to dangerous levels. Most people don’t think about getting too much potassium, or calcium, or phosphorus. But with kidney disease, these and other minerals become a concern.
A good kidney diet is low in sodium. It carefully monitors, potassium, calcium, and phosphorus. It also watches protein intake. People in the early stages of chronic kidney disease typically need less protein, because working to process the waste products protein creates can put too much stress on a diseased kidney. But for people in the last stage of CKD, the protein requirement is different. The final

Once again, the Christmas season is just around the corner and with it comes the question of what to gift your loved ones. Health, well-being, wellness and a little holiday for the mind, body and soul are goods that can hardly be balanced out with money. However, there are ways in which we can positively contribute to our health and wellbeing. What better time than the festive Christmas period to show someone how much they mean to you. Creative and practical gifts devoted to well-being are always very popular, as they can be used in everyday life and are often something a friend or relative wouldn’t think to buy for themself.
Finding the Right Gift for Everyone
Gifts for health means something different for everyone. For example, younger people might require different gifts than grandparents. Students are happy to receive practical things that don't take up too much space. This is especially important for students who love to cook but require a little creativity and ingenuity in small student kitchens. Practical Christmas gifts can also bring the fitness-enthusiast friend or the health-conscious neighbour great joy. Animal lovers would be thrilled to find a gift under the Christmas tree meant for them as well as their four-legged friend.
Vitality 4 Life has put together matching gifts and surprises for all these individual needs. Discover our great gift ideas for your friends and family to suit their hobbies and needs.
