BIO-HACK YOUR FAT STORES

Make light work of losing weight with three more ways to boost brown fat

GET YOUR HEAD UNDER

Don’t restrict cold showers to broken-boiler days. Plos One found cold exposure enhances energy expenditure for 24 hours. Your neighbours will get used to the swearing.

ENJOY SECOND HELPINGS

Load up your plate with impunity when hunger strikes. The journal Cell found eating too few calories prevents white fat from turning brown. Another gut punch for denial dieting.

SCREEN YOUR PHONE TIME

The maligned blue light from phone screens hampers the sleep hormone melatonin, which is crucial in fat ignition. Digi-detox an hour before bed to keep burning fat overnight.
