a novel mechanism through which brown fat is transformed into heat Holy crap. I'm going to spontaneously combust into a ball of fire rivaling a small sun.

But it can only be toggled ‘on’ with strenuous exercise.

Lemme guess. One simple injection every week of Pfizer’s magic elixir will turn on the brown fat burner. Cost is $1,500 per week. Possible side effects include upset stomach, changes in your DNA, and rigor mortis. Consult your doctor if rigor mortis begins to set in.

Unveil your cure for cancer first. Which I’m convinced there is one There is no single cure for cancer. Every cancer--prostate, lung, stomach, brain, etc.--is very different, requiring different treatments and cures.

I’m in and where can I get it? How much?
Or is this another “BREAKING” but not for 10 more years.

The only way I could lose weight is carnivore. I’m never hungry! ...that was a biggy for me....I was always hungry on diets.
The secret is NO carbs...animal meat with its fat is very satisfying and last for hrs ... like 18 hrs.
Complete blood work is WNL

If reducing calories isn't working for you my advice - take it for what it's worth - is to get a full workup by an endocrinologist to find out what your thyroid, hormones, insulin levels, etc. are doing, or not doing.
And move. Get an iPod with your favorites and get going on long brisk walks.

Cold exposure toggles BAT, it’s why infants have a lot of it, they don’t possess the muscle mass to be able to shiver. Adults have very little BAT, and cold exposures activates it, as well as “Browns” some white adipose fat.
To: Red Badger
It is good that they have identified a specific mechanism, and it looks promising.
Nonetheless, it will take many years to translate that into available drugs for humans, if everything does work out, and there are no serious side effects.
In the meantime, cold showers (enough to induce shivering) can strongly activate brown fat thermogenesis, for those with the fortitude to endure them.

Isn’t it interesting that in pictures of holocaust survivors you never see one that’s fat, let alone, obese.
I wonder what the nazi’s secret was.
