sauna suit
A sauna suit is a garment made from waterproof fabric designed to make the wearer sweat profusely. A sauna suit is sometimes called a "rubber suit" because the early types were made of rubber or rubberized cloth. Now, sauna suits are typically made of PVC or coated nylon cloth. The construction is typically in the style of a waterproof sweat suit, consisting of a pullover jacket and drawstring pants. The closures at waist, neck, wrists and ankles are all elasticated to help retain body heat and moisture within the garment. In some sauna suits, the jacket also includes a hood to provide additional retention of body heat. ==Weight loss==
A sauna suit is commonly worn during physical exercise as an aid to weight loss,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Sauna Suits Review )〕 for example by boxers, MMA fighters or wrestlers, who wish to qualify for a specific weight class. The body temperature elevation and the profuse sweating induced by wearing the suit cause a rapid loss in body weight by loss of water.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Can a sauna suit actually help me lose weight? )〕 Because of this dehydration effect, sauna suits should be used with great caution. The body temperature elevation and water loss while wearing a sauna suit can lead to the possibility of heat stroke and dehydration, in extreme cases causing death.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Weight Issues In Wrestling--Final Version )〕 Thus, a sauna suit should not be worn while doing extreme exercise or in hot conditions. A sauna suit is not intended for use in a sauna. Some clothing suppliers assert that the use of a sauna suit accelerates weight loss in exercise by an increase in metabolic rate〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=How The Sauna Suit Works )〕 and calorie burning.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Benefits of Sauna Suits by Elite Sports Nutritionist Fred Brown )〕 Others disagree, and indicate that the only significant effect is temporary water loss that is immediately reversed by subsequent drinking of water.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Do I burn more calories when in a sauna suit? )〕〔http://www.military.com/military-fitness/weight-loss/weight-loss-myths〕 A possible effect of wearing a sauna suit is that it may provide an encouragement to do physical exercise. The increase in body heat from wearing a sauna suit gives the impression of getting "a good workout".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=YouTube )〕
