Many people that are desperate to lose weight will believe almost anything in the hopes it will help them lose even a few pounds. This type of thinking is what makes the weight loss industry money making leaders.
When it comes to heat and weight loss its an easy sell. Many people envision fat as being able to be melted away. This thought leads to the next one, that if they can sweat enough which they believe produces body heat, then the pounds will melt away. As a result they jump at the chance to push their body to the limit by baking in the sun, almost fainting from the heat of saunas, and being wrapped like a mummy in plastic.

The concept is that by heavy sweating they are ultimately going to reach their goal. What may not be realized is that perspiring creates water loss not fat loss. When individuals weigh themselves, a few of those pounds could be as a result of the water content in their body. So they perform a heavy workout, sweat profusely, weight themselves again and are thrilled that they have dropped a pound. The problem is the lost water will be replaced and that pound will return.
First to understand how body heat or using thermogenesis for weight loss works you have to understand the fat in your body. You may not realize that you actually do have some good fat within you and it is very important to you. This is your brown fat or brown adipose tissue known as BAT. This type of fat aside from being important doesn't have any effect on your appearance which is a big thing with overweight individuals. Also your body doesn't contain much brown fat which could be a misfortune as it is now believed that it can play a significant role in helping to combat the bad fat which is the white fat known as the white adipose tissue.
The process of thermogenesis in your body is a complex process but the end result is that it produces the heat your body needs to survive. An easy way to understand this is by looking at animals who are able to hibernate during the cold months yet they don't freeze to death. This is because their brown fat is keeping their body warm. Or the individual who spends a great deal outdoors seems to tolerate the cold weather much easier than those that don't, is because their thermogeneis is working for them. Or have you ever wondered how the kids can dive into that cold swimming pools or spend hours outdoors building snowmen in frigid weather? It is believed that children have a larger content of brown fat which diminishes as they age.
So based on this it makes common sense to consider that perhaps the brown fat could have an effect on the white fat and if so then be harnessed for weight loss. It certainly has enough basis to raise interest and for those that find it an intriguing subject to research it further.
