The Benefits of Cold Thermogenesis

Your body has to burn calories and fat to keep your temp at 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit. Adiponectin increases the uptake of glucose into muscles, allows nutrients to be funneled away from fat formation and into muscle. It reduces inflammation, relaxes cardiac and epithelial tissue, and kills junk cells via a process called apoptosis as well as certain types of cancer cells. Cold exposure does not make you more sick or susceptible to cold unless you already have a flu, fever, or the cold.
