Links To Research on Brown Adipose Fat and Counteracting Obesity and Diabetes

I have been reading  some information from different sources on the role of Brown Adipose Fat in counteracting diabetes. This is brown fat as opposed to white fat. Sites I have visited  are talking about diet, some supplements and even something as simple as turning your shower to COLD for 30 seconds while showering.

Some of it sounds a little crazy, however this does not appear to be some pseudo type science with no basis in fact. Even the Joslin Clinic which is the clinic I personally go to are involved in research in this arena.

There are on line "Infomericals" out there wanting you to spend money to get their book or video etc. I am neither for or against any of these as I simply do NOT KNOW enough about this development to make DO or DON'T comments and recommendations.

I just wanted to list a couple of links and make readers aware that this is being researched and just may produce valuable insights into controlling and maybe even curing diabetes as we go forward.

God Bless,
