Will FIR help folks with heat intolerance.?

Hi Jim,

I recently joined this group. I have a question on the benefits of
FIR for people with heat intolerance.

When I go out in summer, I become even more exhausted, foggy, with
excess thirst despite drinking more water, electrolytes (like
gookinaid combined with Tri Salts).
I get this burning sensation all over my body, eyes feeling very hot
and burning, with a heavy burning pressure like band on the head.
It gets worse in summer.

I am not sure about the reason for this symptom. I am wondering if
FIR heater would help folks like me with heat intolerance.
If you do think it would help, I would appreciate if you could back
it up with scientific evidence as to how it would help people with
heat intolerance.

Thanks a lot
Gayathri.
