Too good to be true? Actually yes, but we’re getting closer. Scientists have discovered a type of fat in our bodies called brown fat. I know more fat is hardly cause for celebration. But we LIKE brown fat! Turns out, brown fat burns calories. Yes, you did read that correctly, burns calories. And, even better, it’s activated by low temperatures. So turn off your thermostat, don’t buy that pea coat, and scrimp on sweaters. You’re wallet and waistline will thank you!
