Heat Exposure Benefits
Deliberate heat exposure, such as regular sauna use, may enhance the activity of FOXO3, a molecule crucial for DNA repair and cellular health. Individuals with advantageous FOXO3 variations are significantly more likely to reach 100 years of age. While the optimal sauna protocol remains unclear, maintaining temperatures between 80 to 100 degrees Celsius for 5 to 20 minutes can promote these health benefits.In this clip
