Can Brown Adipose Tissue Increase Exercise Performance? Study Sheds Light
Advertisement
According to a new research, brown fat may help protect against health conditions such as obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. The findings are published in the journal Aging. Researchers evaluated the role of brown adipose tissue (BAT), a special type of fat that burns calories to generate heat, in improving exercise endurance and supporting healthy aging.
While most studies have shown that exercise regulates brown adipose tissue activation and increases brown adipose tissue density, relatively few have demonstrated that brown adipose tissue itself can directly increase exercise performance.
