FoodAddict Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 It's not a big deal, but just curious if other people have experienced a lot of sweating in the first few days? Figure maybe it's my body trying to get rid of toxins or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmcbn Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Sweating is your body's way of preventing you from over heating. It can be a good, healthy thing during exercise, but it can also be caused by a hormonal imbalance (think menopausal hot flashes etc) which Whole30 will be working towards rebalancing.Consider also that eating protein has a thermic effect on the body. Protein has more than twice the thermic effect of fat or carbohydrates, with 15-35% of the energy consumed in a steak for example being required to digest it, so as your body works to breakdown the meat, it begins to heat up - hence the term 'meat sweats'Of course if you're concerned in anyway please seek medical advice.
