Scientists Fight Fat With Fat

Well, it├óΓé¼Γäós finally happened — our minds have been blown!

Scientists have discovered how to transform white fat cells, which store energy and make it difficult to lose weight, into brown fat cells, which help facilitate burning calories.

The procedure hasn’t been done on humans, but mice are reacting positively to it.

While Yu-Hua Tseng, a researcher at the Joslin Diabetes Center, says that “diet and exercise are still the best approaches to losing weight in the general population,” he noted that this could potentially aid those in need of help — like those with genetic predispositions to obesity.

Incredible. This gives a ray of hope to all of those truly struggling with weight loss!
