You can increase brown fat by exposing your body to cold temperatures and possibly through certain medical treatments. Brown fat helps burn calories and manage weight.
Brown fat, or brown adipose tissue (BAT), helps your body burn calories and manage weight. To increase brown fat, you can try cold exposure. This means spending time in cooler temperatures, which can activate brown fat and help it grow.
Research suggests that intermittent cold exposure can boost brown fat activity. This could be as simple as spending time in a cool environment or taking cold showers.
There are also potential medical treatments being studied to increase brown fat, but these are still under investigation. It's important to note that while increasing brown fat can aid in weight management, it should be part of a balanced approach that includes healthy eating and exercise.
