The Science Behind Thermogenesis and Brown Fat Activation

Utilizing cold temperatures in a specific way can activate brown fat, which is rich in mitochondria and acts like muscle, burning energy instead of storing it. Studies show that activated brown fat can burn additional calories and improve metabolism, reducing the risk of metabolic diseases. Exposure to cold temperatures can activate brown fat activity, improve insulin sensitivity, and increase the production of hormones that support metabolism and fat loss.
