From the Washington Post: In addition to eating less and exercising more, people may one day be able to stimulate their bodies to get rid of stored energy -- in the form of ordinary fat -- purely as heat. "It is, in a sense, the discovery of a new organ..." Seriously?
It's called brown fat and when you are cold, it is activated to create heat and burn calories. So, if you are chilled to the point of shivering, then you will be thin. So much for hot yoga and jogging in plastic wrap.
(I'd rather be warm).
