It
is
not
alone
in
stimulating
the
eliminative
function
of
the
skin
that
exercise
has
a
blood-purifying
effect;
it
accelerates
all
the
functions
of
the
body,
it
stimulates
greater
activity
of
the
lungs
and
of
the
kidneys.
It
promotes
such
an
active
circulation
through
all
the
minute
structures
of
the
body
that
accumulations
of
waste
and
dead
matter
are
taken
up
and
swept
on
to
be
thrown
out
through
the
natural
channels
of
elimination.
Under
conditions
of
physical
stagnation,
when
the
circulation
is
less
active,
much
of
this
waste
matter
tends
to
remain
in
the
tissues
of
the
body,
accumulating
and
interfering
with
cell
activity
and
normal
functioning
in
general.
The
vigorous
circulation
of
the
blood
induced
by
exercise
gradually
has
the
effect
of
flushing
out
all
of
the
bodily
tissues,
and
in
that
way
has
an
internal
cleansing
effect
that
cannot
be
attained
by
any
other
means.
In
another
chapter
I
have
referred
to
the
powerful
influence
of
the
drinking
of
hot
water
in
connection
with
exercise
as
a
means
of
promoting
a
more
free
circulation,
but
exercise
under
any
circumstances
tends
to
the
same
result,
and
for
this
reason
as
well
as
because
of
the
perspiration
brought
about,
exercise
must
be
regarded
as
perhaps
the
most
important
of
all
measures
for
blood
purification.
No
man
can
be
continuously
healthy
without
exercise.
No
man
or
woman
can
be
internally
clean,
in
the
strictist
sense,
without
a
proper
amount
of
daily
exercise.
However,
for
those
who
are
not
strong
enough
to
take
a
large
amount
of
exercise,
and
who
cannot
in
this
way
bring
about
free
perspiration,
other
methods
of
accelerating
the
activity
of
the
pores
of
the
skin
may
be
employed.
I
have
already
referred
to
the
influence
of
air
baths,
friction
baths
and
sun
baths.
Remember
that
through
these
agencies
the
pores
may
be
made
very
active
without
any
apparent
result
in
the
form
of
liquid
perspiration,
for
under
ordinary
conditions
perspiration
evaporates
and
the
body
may
not
become
wet.
It
is
only
when
one
perspires
very
rapidly
that
perspiration
is
manifested
in
the
moistening
of
the
skin.
When
taking
your
air
baths
there
may
be
marked
activity
of
the
skin
without
any
appearance
of
"sweat."
