Cold-induced thermogenesis: How many extra calories can it help you burn away?

As soon as our bodies cool down, even if just by a few degrees, they start burning away more calories to keep us warm. This process is also known as cold-induced thermogenesis[1].

Thermogenesis basically means means the generation of heat in our bodies, and cold is just one of the many triggers that can start this process.

In this article, I’ll go over the science that shows indoor and outdoor temperatures can have a big influence on how many calories we ultimately burn away through cold-induced thermogenesis.

I’ll also give you a couple of ideas you can use to boost thermogenesis in …read more
