Research shows that
brown adipose tissue can
be recruited, expanded
and activated by exposure
to cold environments
(cryotherapy)
This trend explores numerous studies
and examples of how white
cell/brown cell transformation could
work, focusing on three areas:
pluripotent cell transformation, cold
therapy and drugs. For example,
researchers have induced pluripotent
stem cells and turned them into
induced brown adipocytes by
transducing a gene.
Easier to understand is the (heavily
trending) cold therapy where
research shows that brown adipose
tissue can be recruited, expanded
and activated by exposure to cold
environments (cryotherapy). This
increases metabolic rate, although
results are highly individual.
