*Important correction:* The 140ºF temperature mentioned at 00:51:52 was a poor celsius to Fahrenheit conversion. While 140ºF is quite mild for a sauna, it is very high for a hot bath. The temperature that was stated should've been 104ºF based on a conversion from 40ºC in the original study. Thank you, Carole Dockree, for pointing this out.
