Sauna

If toxins are sweated out in a sauna does that make the sauna a toxic area?

For example are heavy metals, pesticides and herbicides ingested via food and air in a person's body sweated out? If they are indeed sweated out where do they go in a sauna?

1. Anything sweated out goes down the drain. But don't worry, you don't sweat out toxins. In school, you learn that sweat is one way that waste is eliminated, but the liver removes most toxins, not your sweat glands. What your liver removes goes into your intestines, and from there it goes into the toilet and down the drain.
