BROWN FAT AND METABOLISM
Not having any variation in temperature exposure is affecting your metabolism! You have secret stores of brown fat located in various parts of your body. Brown fat is healthy fat and increases your fat burning! Researchers once thought we outgrew this healthy fat when we were young, but more recently discovered we preserve these healthy fat deposits, and we can activate them.
ACTIVATING BROWN FAT
Activating brown fat is easy but a little uncomfortable in the beginning. All it takes is a couple of hours of cold temperature exposure. About 2 hours a day, at 62F for about a month and a half, and you’ve got your metabolism boosted to burn fat more efficiently. This results not only in fat burning but also improved overall health.
STUDIES IN HUMANS
Studies from Japan and the Netherlands have documented this effect in humans. We keep our bodies relatively comfortable in fixed temperatures, but we lose some of our bodies natural ability to turn our those stores of brown fat needed to boost metabolism
TRY IT AT HOME
It’s easy and inexpensive, take your metabolism to the next level. Try dropping the thermostat setting in the house in the winter time, or find some regular time to play outdoors when the weather is cold.
