Post copied from (un)famous 4chan/pol:
Cold exposure upregulates Brown Adipose Tissue. Europeans/North Asians/Inuit have the highest rate of Upregulation in humans.
The following link has a list of health benefits found from BAT but to summarize (but not limited to).
>improves bone density
>stores more of your fat as BAT with more exposure
>increases metabolism
>reverses diabetes/insulin resistance
>improves circulation
>every tissue on your body upregulates energy usage (from tendons to testes to brain cells, think about that for a moment)
>Upregulates PPARGC1A, which is also known as human accelerated region 20 (HAR20). It may, therefore, have played a key role in differentiating humans from apes. Involved in energy metabolism.
Brown adipose tissue - Wikipedia
>Thermogenin (called uncoupling protein by its discoverers and now known as uncoupling protein 1, or UCP1)[5] is an uncoupling protein found in the mitochondria of brown adipose tissue (BAT). It is used to generate heat by non-shivering thermogenesis
>Methods of delivering UCP1 to cells by gene transfer therapy or methods of its upregulation have been an important line of enquiry in research into the treatment of obesity, due to their ability to dissipate excess metabolic stores.
These effects are compounded by intermittent fasting.
