Frequent Sauna Use Linked With a 66% Lower Chance of Getting Dementia

In a 20-year Finnish study, men who used a sauna 4-7 times a week had a significantly lower chance of being diagnosed with dementia than those who only used it once a week

Previous results from the Kuopio Ischaemic Heart Disease Risk Factor Study  have shown that frequent sauna bathing also significantly reduces the risk of sudden cardiac death, the risk of death due to coronary artery disease and other cardiac events, as well as overall mortality. According to Professor Jari Laukkanen, the study leader, sauna bathing may protect both the heart and memory to some extent via similar, still poorly known mechanisms. "However, it is known that cardiovascular health affects the brain as well. The sense of well-being and relaxation experienced during sauna bathing may also play a role."

I wonder if this is true also for those living in the tropics and elsewhere that faces high temperatures. The scorching weather here almost feels like being in a sauna.

I know I'll probably look pretty flushed if I go for a sauna that often. Once a week sounds reasonable.
