Frequent sauna bathing is not associated with impaired renal function or future risk for chronic kidney disease (CKD), according to a study published online April 8 in the European Journal of Clinical Investigation.
Setor K. Kunutsor, M.D., Ph.D., from University of Leicester in the United Kingdom, and colleagues evaluated associations between the frequency of sauna bathing with renal function measures and CKD. The analysis included 2,071 men (aged 42 to 61 years) with normal kidney function.
