Fat Loss Science You Need To Know

So you are working hard in the Gym but not seeing any results? Here are some ‘Cutting-Edge’ Fat loss ways.

1- High Protein, Low-Calorie Diets

High-protein diets are useful for preventing or treating obesity because they increase metabolism, suppress appetite and reduce caloric intake according to a literature review led by Heather Leidy from the University of Missouri School of Medicine, and Colleagues.

Comparisons of weight-loss diets high in carbohydrates, protein or mixed nutrients consistently show that the high-protein diets are most effective for weight loss. As expected, high-protein diets are most effective in people who adhere to the weight-loss program. High-protein diets contain between 1.2 and 1.6 grams of protein per kilogram of bodyweight. Each meal should contain 25 to 30 grams of protein. (American Journal of Clinical Nutrition)

2- “Cold Shoulder” To Activates Brown Fat and Promotes Weight Loss

The “cold shoulder” is a vest filled with ice that is designed to promote calorie burning. Wayne Hayes, a NASA scientist and professor designed the vest.

The cold-induced by the vest stimulates a tissue called brown fat to generate heat. Brown fat is an interesting tissue because it burns calories rather than storing them as fat. Cold exposure triggers increased brown fat activity, which promotes fat loss. The makers of the vast recommend that you take it out of the freezer, put it on and wear it until the ice melts. As your brown fat adapts, wearing the vest will dissipate about 500 calories. The vest costs about $150. See coldshoulderweightloss.com for more information. (New Scientist)
