The colder, days could define spending more time indoors than outdoors, making you more responsive to weight gain during the winter months. And that is why people suffer through the winter to lose weight and keep it off despite their best purposes. I think that winter season is the best season to have weight loss It turns out, keeping cool can help you slim down and drop kilos even without much works - from sleeping in a cold room to shivering for just 10 minutes. And here’s the proof!

The brown fat factor
Some research implies that cold temperatures activate the body's stores of brown fat, the ‘good’ type of fat that actually helps you burn more calories and abolish the harmful ‘white fat’ from the body. In other words, your body uses more energy/calories in cold climate than it does in warm weather to keep you warm, accordingly, using up a lot more calories than in the warmer months.

Some of the scientists from  Maastricht University in the Netherlands, being mildly cold - that is, not to the point of shivering - can increase the rate of energy burnt by between 3 and 30 percent.
 

The shiver workout

The study has shown that trembling with cold may be as useful as exercise when it comes to staying fit and slim. Scientists noticed that shivering for 10 to 15 minutes can burn as many calories as an hour of exercise. The scientist also identified two hormones that are spurred by cold - that is irisin and FGF21- which is released by shivering muscle and brown fat individually. These hormones created when we are cold fire up the energy-burning rate of brown fat cells. 

Maybe, if you have the correct diet plan that helps you shed kilos, you can lose body fat fast without having to exercise during the time of winter. Therefore, why not adopt a healthier lifestyle this season, which will easily help you burn off extra calories, to stay fit and improve overall health?
