Sweating is a necessary function of the body. It aids in removing toxins from the body and regulating body temperature.
The liver and kidneys, not the sweat glands, are the organs responsible for the filtration of toxins from the blood. There is widespread belief that sweating, e.g. in a sauna, helps the body to remove toxins, but the belief is without scientific support. Sweat does contain trace amounts of toxins but definitely won't help clear the body of mercury or other metals. Almost all toxic metals in the body are excreted through urine or feces. Less than 1% are lost through sweat. Sweating for the sake of sweating (e.g. sauna "treatments") has no benefits. In fact, heavy sweating can impair your body's natural detoxification system due to dehydration.
