Cold is not necessarily a bad thing. British "Daily Mail"1October 22nd reported that a new study by Dutch scientists found that moderately lowering the air-conditioning temperature not only saves money and protects the environment, but also helps to lose weight.

Scientists at Maastricht University Medical Center in the Netherlands have studied the effects of 10 cold on metabolism. The results show that keeping a little lower room temperature is a healthy and feasible measure to lose weight, which can keep people slim. On the contrary, a warm and comfortable living room or office environment can easily lead to a thicker waistline.

The new study also found that people will get used to the cold after a period of time. /kloc-staying in a cold environment for 6 hours every day for 0/0 day will increase the brown fat that produces heat in the human body, and people will feel more comfortable and will not tremble again.

Dr. Walter Marken Richtenbert, the head of the new study, said that most people spend 90% of their time indoors, so the impact of indoor temperature on health is worth exploring. The new research found that compared with the warm environment, in the lower temperature environment, the human body consumes 30% more calories, so less calories are accumulated in the form of fat, and more fat is burned and released.

Dr. Richtenbert said that an early study in Japan also found that if a person stays in the environment of 17℃ every day for six weeks, his body fat content will be significantly reduced and his weight loss effect will be significantly improved.
