Johns Hopkins Scientists Discover A Shocking New Cause of Belly Fat And It’s Not What You Think...
Are you struggling to lose weight no matter how much you diet or exercise? Turns out, it's not your fault.
A 2024 study published in Nature Medicine of 52,000 women and men, the largest of its kind
in humans,
found just one common factor in every overweight
man and woman. Low brown adipose tissue levels.
They also found common in every skinny person were high brown adipose tissue levels. [1]
Brown adipose tissue (BAT) also know as brown fat,
is not fat at all. Its not a fat storer but a fat shrinker.
Its brown color comes from its densely packed mitochondria which work 24/7 to burn calories from
your fat stores and the food you eat into pure,
natural energy.
Even though BAT makes up a fraction of your weight,
it can burn up to 300 times more calories than any
other cell in your body! [2]
