Emerging research suggests that a specific type of body fat may play an important role in healthy aging and physical performance. Researchers from Rutgers New Jersey Medical School explore this topic in a recent research perspective published in Aging (Aging-US). Their work discusses new findings and emerging ideas about the role of brown adipose tissue (BAT), commonly known as brown fat. Understanding Brown Fat The human body contains different types of fat. The most common is white adipose tissue (WAT), which primarily stores excess calories. When present in large amounts, WAT contributes to health problems like obesity, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease as a result of its role in metabolic imbalance. In contrast, BAT serves a more dynamic role. Instead of storing energy, BAT burns calories to generate heat through a process called thermogenesis, powered by its high concentration of mitochondria—the energy-producing structures in cells. While BAT is abundant in newborns to help regulate body temperature, it persists in smaller amounts in adults, particularly around the neck, shoulders, and spine. According to the research perspective, titled “Brown Adipose Tissue Enhances Exercise Performance and Healthful Longevity” brown fat's role extends beyond thermoregulation. The authors suggest that BAT can significantly improve metabolic health, enhance physical performance, and promote healthful longevity.

In this episode of the LiverHealthPod John, Will and Paul talk about Brown fat. What is it? Where is it? And, does it even matter. Mail Bag is open again - PBC, affecting more than just the Liver!!
BUFFALO, NY- January 8, 2025 – A new #research perspective was #published in Aging (listed by MEDLINE/PubMed as "Aging (Albany NY)" and "Aging-US" by Web of Science) Volume 16, Issue 22 on December 18, 2024, entitled “Brown adipose tissue enhances exercise performance and healthful longevity.” Researchers from Rutgers New Jersey Medical School, Dorothy E. Vatner, Jie Zhang, and Stephen F. Vatner, 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. Unlike regular white fat, which stores energy, brown fat helps the body stay warm and boosts metabolism. According to the authors, this process may also help protect against health conditions such as obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. This research perspective highlights key findings from multiple studies on BAT. While most studies have shown that exercise regulates BAT activation and increases BAT density, relatively few have demonstrated that BAT itself can directly increase exercise performance. One notable example involves RGS14 knockout mice, a genetically modified group known for their longer lifespan. When BAT from these mice was transplanted into regular mice, the recipients displayed improved running endurance just three days after the transplant. In contrast, brown fat from non-modified mice took much longer to produce similar improvements. These findings highlight the unique properties of BAT in enhancing physical performance. The researchers emphasized also that BAT improves blood circulation and reduces cellular stress, which may help combat age-related muscle loss, fatigue, and metabolic decline. The authors suggest that treatments designed to mimic the benefits of brown fat could lead to innovative approaches for improving energy levels, maintaining a healthy weight, and supporting heart health. “In view of the ability of BAT to mediate healthful longevity and enhance exercise performance, it is likely that a pharmaceutical analog of BAT will become a novel therapeutic modality.” In conclusion, continued research on this topic may lead to the development of promising new therapies that help older adults live more active lives while reducing the risk of chronic age-related conditions.

Despite not having a known function, cellular “vaults” are on the verge of being harnessed for all kinds of applications, and looking at the evolution of brown fat into a heat-generating organ First on this week's show, Managing News Editor John Travis joins host Sarah Crespi to discuss mysterious cellular complexes called “vaults.” First discovered in the 1980s, scientists have yet to uncover the function of these large, common, hollow structures. But now some researchers are looking to use vaults to deliver cancer drugs and viruses for gene therapy. Next, what can we learn about the evolution of brown fat from opossums? Unlike white fat, which stores energy in many mammals, brown fat cells use ATP to generate heat, helping babies maintain their body temperature and hibernators kick-start their summers. Susanne Keipert, a researcher in the Department of Molecular Biosciences at Stockholm University's Wenner-Gren Institute, talks about when in evolutionary history brown fat took on this job of burning energy. Finally, this week we are launching our music refresh!

Welcome back to the Inner Edison podcast, where we celebrate the indomitable human spirit and the power of transformation. I'm your host, Ed Parcaut. Today, we have the privilege to sit down with an exceptional guest—Chad Hufford, a man who has traversed the realms of military mindset training and wealth management, teaching us the invaluable role resilience and consistency play in every aspect of our lives. In this episode, we're diving deep into the psychological parallels between preparing soldiers for the rigors of combat and coaching individuals on the discipline of wealth management. Chad will share how he uses his expertise in performance psychology to foster a mindset geared towards persistence and the meticulous execution of plans. We'll delve into how the skills that make warriors on the battlefield can also create financial warriors in the market. Together, Chad and I will exchange personal anecdotes on how economic events shape investment philosophies, the underrated power of small, consistent actions, and why playing the long game is vital in finance, health, and relationships. Expect insights on the impact of tactical practices both in the theater of war and in personal habits such as fitness and cold plunging—a practice that we've both explored with fascinating results. We will also venture into the social side of things, with a lighthearted discussion on action movies before hitting upon the serious implications of mindset in pursuing a transformative path. From adopting a discipline akin to a military savings plan to navigating the new normal post-pandemic with autonomy and multiple streams of income, we cover it all. Get ready to be inspired and to look at your own "push-ups" in life—those consistent, seemingly small efforts—differently after this episode. It's all about turning those setbacks into setups for success, so let's ignite that spark to change your perspective and rebuild stronger, because remember, it's not about avoiding the crash; it's about how you reignite the engine after the fallout. Join us, as Chad Hufford, wealth management trainer and performance coach, takes us through his journey from biochemistry and battlefield to boardroom and bank account, only here on the Inner Edison podcast.

I could go and sit for 10-20 minutes, which I encourage people to do as well, but 2-3 minutes in the Plunge gives me almost that same feeling in my mind as the mental apps get turned off." - Ryan Duey Biohack Your Mind & Body with Plunge Ice Baths!

Get $150 off your Plunge order with the code 'WELLNESSFORCE' Plunge's revolutionary Cold Plunge uses powerful cooling, filtration, and sanitation to give you cold, clean water whenever you want it, making it far superior to an ice bath or chest freezer. The Plunge is safe for indoor or outdoor use and we've made installation truly plug-and-plunge. Fill your Plunge up with a hose, turn it on, set your temp (down to 39F) and you're all set. Plunge was born out of optimistic vision during a challenging time. In March 2020, COVID-19 shut down Michael's float spas and with his newly found free time, he looked at the cold plunges on the market and found them shockingly expensive. Enlisting the help of his dad, they were determined to create a more affordable option. After countless iterations and improvements, the Plunge was born. A friendship turned into a powerful partnership when Ryan Duey came on board. Michael and Ryan have a common passion for cold plunging, floating, and building win-win relationships. After building the first 20 Plunges out of Michael's garage, they have since opened a factory in Sacramento and are sending Plunges all over the world!

Ryan's personal health practices and why he sometimes struggles from time to time to want to do them. Why the path of least resistance isn't always the way especially when it comes to physical health. Exploring when resistance can be a healthy thing in our lives especially for a heart-based issue.

His definition of wellness after all he's been through over the years as a wellpreneur. Power Quotes From The Show The Benefits of Ice Baths "From an inflammation standpoint, there are so many benefits of cold plunging after a workout. Also, it gives me so much energy, clears my mind, and makes me feel incredible." - Ryan Duey The Best Workout for the Nervous System "A cold plunge is the best workout for the nervous system. We work out to tear our muscles down and they build back stronger. By getting in the plunge, you're getting outside of your comfort zone, the adrenaline is increasing, and your mind begins to stress but you have the opportunity to completely override and go from a sympathetic state of fight or flight into being in full control of your breath. By doing that cold plunge, you have literally changed your whole body system in 2-3 minutes. Think about what that could mean in everything we do in life; that you are actually in control." - Ryan Duey How Cold Plunging Helps Heal Depression "On a time front, cold plunging is such a short commitment and when you're in a very depressed state, big things seem so unfathomable. If you have this in your house or a river right near you or you take a cold shower, there's a moment where spending time in cold water gives you a window to make a positive shift moving forward. Just spend 2 minutes or even take 10 breaths to help you open up out of your depression and start making the actionable steps when you feel stuck." - Ryan Duey Links From Today's Show Get $150 off your Plunge order with the code 'WELLNESSFORCE' Capitol Floats Temple of the Way of Light MAPS, the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies 210 Brad Burge 410 Mark Divine Wim Hof Dr. Andrew Weil Dr. Rhonda Patrick Dr. Andrew Huberman Dr. Rhonda Patrick on her cold plunge experience Scientific Evidence-Based Effects of Hydrotherapy on Various Systems of the Body The Kaufmann Protocol Vipassana Meditation – A Spartan Race For The Mind John C.

He attended Cal Poly University where he spent a semester abroad in Barcelona. The experience was so impactful that after graduation, Ryan returned to Spain and spent the next two years living and working in Madrid. After Madrid, Ryan returned to the states and began working in the front office of the San Jose Earthquakes. Soon after, Ryan had what he calls his “greatest gift”: a head-on motorcycle accident in Thailand. This near death experience catapulted Ryan into a journey of self-inquiry, leading him to the jungles of the Amazon, the inside of a float tank, and a commitment to entrepreneurship in the Health and Wellness industry. While building Capitol Floats, Sacramento's Premier Float Center, Ryan traveled to Reboot Float Spa in the Bay Area with the hopes of meeting the owner, Mike Garrett. The two quickly became friends and business confidants. Now, six years later, Ryan and Mike are taking the next step together and have joined forces to create Plunge. Their mission is to make cold plunging as common as coffee. Ryan couldn't be more grateful and excited to be working alongside such an impressive human and building the team at Plunge.
In this juicy episode of What's the Juice, I'm sitting down with Dr. William Li, author of "Eat to Beat Disease," to challenge common perceptions of body fat and explore practical strategies for maintaining a healthy balance. Here are the key takeaways: Essential role of body fat: Fat cells act as a fuel tank during development, storing energy for future use. Consequences of overeating: Excessive calorie intake leads to fat accumulation, metabolic issues, and inflammation. Listening to your body: Pay attention to hunger and fullness cues to avoid overeating. Quality of food matters: Choose nutritious options to fuel your body effectively. Understanding visceral fat: Excess visceral fat surrounding organs can impact health negatively. Practical strategies: Avoid late-night snacking and incorporate fasting periods for effective fat-burning. Hormonal imbalances: Balancing hormones through food choices and lifestyle practices is essential. *** this week only: use code glucobitters10 at checkout to save 10% off our new formula, GlucoBitters*** Connect with Dr. William Li: Explore Dr. William Li's book "Eat to Beat Disease" and his research on his website: HERE Follow Dr. William Li: HERE Connect with Olivia: Follow: HERE Shop herbal formulas: HERE

Otto Muzik is best known to me for his research papers on Wim Hof's abilities that connected the iceman's abilities to the mysterious power of the placebo effect. The Wim Hof method website frequently cites the study and there is another paper in the works. But Muzik has a lot to say about the science of brown fat and the organization around him called "InnerFire" that might make you think twice about what Muzik's endorsement really means about the Wim Hof Method.

In this episode, my guest is Susanna Søberg, PhD. She earned her doctoral degree at the University of Copenhagen in Denmark, researching the effects of deliberate cold and deliberate heat exposure on metabolism and other aspects of human physiology. We discuss how cold or sauna can improve metabolism, cardiovascular and brain health, balance hormones, and decrease inflammation. Dr. Søberg discusses how deliberate cold protocols can improve glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity and trigger release of neurotransmitters like dopamine and norepinephrine which enhance energy, mood, and focus. We compare cold showers and cold immersion, traditional and infrared saunas, and other variables. This episode provides actionable tools and answers to common questions about the use of deliberate cold and heat to improve health. For the full show notes, visit hubermanlab.com.

IN THIS EPISODE OF THE HUMAN UPGRADE™…Susanna Soeberg, Ph.D., a Danish researcher, international scientist and expert in cold and heat therapy for health and performance, explains how you can harness the massive benefits of cold water immersion (winter swimming), sauna, breathing, and your metabolism.When it comes to biohacking, a few things rise to the top and make a pretty big difference in your body and brain. Through her research, Susanna discovered the minimum threshold of cold and heat exposure for health benefits. We get right into that on the show. She also works with functional breathing during cold environmental conditions and cold water immersion, especially winter swimming. Have you been considering this biohack for awhile? Baby steps won't get you there—prepare to go all-in with the cold. “You could take cold showers, for sure,” Susanna says, “but it's not going to activate your parasympathetic nervous system in the same way as submerging yourself into cold water.”Earning a Ph.D. in metabolism at the University of Copenhagen set her on course to focus her expertise on ways metabolism works for and against you—and what you can do to improve your metabolic profile. She researches obesity, Type 2 diabetes and insulin management, as well as how brown and white adipose tissue (fat) function differently within the human body.In Susanna's new book, “Winter Swimming: The Nordic Way Towards a Healthier and Happier Life,” she describes the benefits of winter swimming and cold water immersion on your physiology, mental health, and capacity for resilience.Watch this episode on YouTube!SPECIAL OFFER FOR THE HUMAN UPGRADE LISTENERS: Go to https://www.soeberginstitute.com and use code DAVE for a special discount on Susanna Soeberg's 3-week course, The Thermalist CureTM.Opportunity: Breath, Cold, Stress & Resilience Conference, Feb. 18, 2023.
