Hi, Gayla: Thanks, Gayla. About a 1/2 cup per gallon - or so. I'm not worried about using too much because I know CSW is good for my skin, too. I'm kind of guessing at how much to use because I can't find any info on it - so I use what I think is appropriate and safe.

Re: CSCS OFF TOPIC FIR SAUNAS
Good points, Annie. Weekly detoxing is very important - in my mind, anyway. I always take a large glass of iced, pure spring water into my Sauna to re-hydrate the toxic liquids I lose in sweating out the poisons. NEVER any alcohol - only pure, delicious Spring water. I've never found myself light headed, but I only sit and listen to music or meditate in my Sauna for a half-hour. And an immediate shower afterwards to wash the poisons off. Ahhh, I love it!

Re: CSCS OFF TOPIC FIR SAUNAS
Lisa: My Sunlight Sauna runs off 120 house power. My total total electric and gas bill runs about $143.00 in the coldest of NY winters. Basically because I have a passive solar heated home with a wood stove back-up which warmly purrs day and night from late November until late March. It costs me about $500.00 a year for wood - not pellets - I fear they may rise in price and I can always cut and split wood... I have a furnace back-up, too, but never use it. I used to when I had to be out of town for a week or two years ago. I can't imagine my Sauna costs much more than a dollar or two every time I use it - maybe less. I bought my passive solar heated house about 20 years ago - because I feared where energy prices may be headed. I'm also contemplating putting in a wind -mill to offset the electrical prices. I've got the plans for building it - I just haven't implemented that yet. My post and beam custom designed home with 12 foot ceilings (I'm somewhat claustrophobic...) is insulated extremely well. 36 R in all the walls and 40 R in the ceilings. The DR and LR ceilings are knotty pine with rotating fans for air cirulation. There is a main ozonated air cleaner in the LR and DR and individual air cleaners in every other room. I find breathingtclean air to be very relevant... Ha... Ha... There's 150 tons of extremely fine Australian sand in my basement that absorbs heat over the summer and through thousands of feet of tubing running through the sand. feeds the heat back through floor vents with a fan system in the winter - if I choose to use it. It's a very cozy home with a digital office, kitchen, DR, LR, a full wet darkroom, my musical recording studio, master BR, a downstairs bathroom and a full bathroom upstairs. All the floors are either hardwood (oak) or ceramic tile (Kitchen, Bathrooms and the darkroom). I have a 1000 square foot deck (my summer living room...) where I have a large colloidal silver water treated (non-chlorine and non-bromine) hot tub and where my Sauna is located. My deck is outfitted with all Teak deck furniture which I purchased many, many years ago. It doesn't need to be removed in the winter. It takes the weather super well and just turns a soft, beautiful gray color with the weather. I've had the same canvas table umbrella for at least 15 years. I don't like replacing things.

RE: CSCS OFF TOPIC FIR SAUNAS
Do FIR sauna help control blood sugar levels? I recall a member who writes about saunas benefits. Thanks marty === Hi Marty. You may be thinking of my book on Sauna Therapy (see my tagline). Since sweating helps eliminate toxins, it can benefit the entire system. It does not directly affect blood sugar levels as far as I know. However, sometimes people feel better eating a very light meal (or a piece of fruit) before going into the sauna, insofar as some folks may feel a rise in their metabolism.
