?La gota te hace sudar m?s?
?Sab?as que tienes entre 2 millones y 4 millones de gl?ndulas sudor?paras en tu cuerpo? Aunque las mujeres generalmente tienen m?s gl?ndulas sudor?paras, las gl?ndulas de los hombres suelen ser m?s activas y sudamos m?s. El sudor mantiene la temperatura de tu cuerpo para evitar el sobrecalentamiento, ayuda a eliminar toxinas del cuerpo para apoyar el sistema inmunol?gico, contribuye a limpiar los poros y reduce el riesgo de desarrollar infecciones en la piel. Adem?s, el sudor puede matar virus y bacterias peligrosas, ya que no pueden sobrevivir a temperaturas superiores a 98.6 grados Fahrenheit.
Como alguien que sufre de gota, debo admitir... ?suelo sudar mucho! Y probablemente t? tambi?n lo hagas. De hecho, not? que empec? a sudar m?s de lo habitual alrededor del mismo tiempo en que me diagnosticaron la gota. En realidad, la condici?n de hiperhidrosis que se caracteriza por sudar m?s de lo normal o en exceso de lo que el cuerpo requiere para regular la temperatura corporal, enumera la diabetes, la tiroides, la menopausia, los tumores, as? como La gota es un trastorno que puede desencadenar la hiperhidrosis..
He notado en m? mismo que a veces, si estaba nervioso, otras personas simplemente se sonrojaban o pod?an sentir un poco de calor, mientras que yo sudaba bastante f?cilmente y esto me pon?a a?n m?s nervioso, haciendo que sudara a?n m?s. ?No es divertido, te lo aseguro! De hecho, los pacientes con gota mayores de 60 a?os y hombres, como grupo, experimentan la sudoraci?n excesiva m?s frecuentemente.
But Does Sweat Help Excrete Uric Acid?
The answer is yes! We all know that gout is caused by high uric acid in the blood and the best way to flush uric acid out of your body is through urination but you can also remove uric acid through perspiration as well. They both help to eliminate toxins from your body. Do note that dehydration increases uric acid so that?s why it?s so important for the gout sufferer to drink lots of water and stay hydrated at all times.
Did you know that sweat has 99% water and urine has 95% water? Yet urination is more efficient at excreting uric acid compared to sweating. One study did state that all they found was 6.3% of uric acid excreted from the blood from sweating which is quite minimal.
Research has also shown that people who sweat more via exercise for example may have a lower risk of developing kidney stones. You sweat out more salt instead of having it form as stone in the kidneys and since people that sweat more usually drink more water which is another way to avoid kidney stones. Remember if you suffer from gout you are at a higher risk of developing kidney stones later in life.
What you want to watch out for is heavy sweating or sweating profusely which can be counterproductive and raise your uric acid levels. For example, strenuous exercise since by sweating more, this will cause you to urinate less and urinating is the preferable method of ridding your body of excess uric acid, so this is why uric acid levels can go higher. Staying well hydrated at all times is the key to limiting this.
Remember that if you sweat a lot, that this will cause your body to lose lots of fluid and electrolytes. I?ve emphasized it many times on this website, to always stay well hydrated and replace those electrolytes naturally. I like to drink coconut water when exercising to replenish my electrolytes or simply eat a banana, that will help too! If you hit the sauna, that?s fine but make sure to stay hydrated. The time it took me to write this post, I drank an entire bottle of water, time to urinate, talk to you next time!
