When you think of sweating in relation to the skin, oil buildup and bad odor may come to mind. However, experts say that sweating can remove dirt and dead skin cells from the body, and its normal production can have an anti-aging aesthetic effect.
"The purpose of sweating is to help your body maintain normal body temperature and to cool you down when your body temperature rises, which can happen in the environment of exercise, work, stress, or hot temperatures outside, among other causes. said Dr. Marisa Garshick, a dermatologist based in New York.

Sweating can wash away bacteria that are harmful to the skin

Sweat contains a natural antibacterial peptide called dermcidin. This peptide naturally destroys bacteria and other harmful pollutants. As a result, it helps minimize infections and can even help with acne breakouts, according to dermatologists.

Sweating can have moisturizing effects on your skin

A potential benefit of sweating, according to dermatologists, is that it plays a key role in maintaining the skin's hydration levels and strengthening the skin's barrier function. This is because it increases blood circulation to your skin and gives it a healthy glow.
