Original title: New study says coffee may be a good helper for weight loss
A new study from the University of Nottingham in the UK has found that coffee increases the activity of brown fat in the body, which helps people control their weight.
body fat is divided into white and brown two kinds. White fat is mainly used to store energy and is associated with obesity, brown fat can promote the body to consume sugar and white fat to produce calories, in response to cold and other conditions, enhance the activity of brown fat to help control blood sugar and blood lipid levels, but also help to lose weight.
A team of researchers at the University of Nottingham, writing in the new issue of Scientific Reports, said they found that caffeine stimulates brown fat in stem cell studies and then thought they could analyze changes in brown fat in the body after drinking coffee.
, the human neck has more brown fat. The researchers asked the subjects to drink a cup of coffee and then use thermal imaging to scan their necks, only to find that the brown fat area did get hotter and more active.
, who led the study and is a professor at the University of Nottingham in the UK, said it was the first time human trials had shown that drinking a cup of coffee had a direct impact on the function of brown fat in the body.
he says further research is needed to see which ingredients in coffee have an effect on brown fat and whether there are other active ingredients besides caffeine. Since obesity is a growing health problem in modern society, research results can be used for weight management and blood sugar regulation to help people fight obesity and diabetes and other related diseases.
