Being Cold Can Help Burn Calories

Summary by WFXB
According to new research, just 15 minutes of shivering in a cold environment can have the same effect as an hour of exercise! When temperatures drop, the body has to work harder to keep itself warm, burning more calories in the process. Cold-exposure treatments, like cryotherapy chambers or wearing ice-filled vests, can be used to trigger the body’s shiver response and can burn up to 250 calories an hour.
