The cold wave is coming again, is it a good time to lose weight quickly? Famous weight loss doctor: Drink coffee, green tea, and do this exercise

The super cold wave has arrived! Some people on the Internet say that it is a good time to take advantage of the low temperatures to help speed up weight loss. Even some Korean stars have started using low temperatures to lose weight. They go naked into a barrel at minus 130 degrees Celsius and stand up after about three minutes. It is said to help with weight loss. Is low temperature really beneficial for weight loss? Domestic weight loss doctors said that doing this trick right in winter can indeed help promote the body's metabolic rate, especially when combined with a drink containing the two ingredients, it can be said to be a good partner for weight loss!

Weight loss clinic experience: October to February of the following year is the most likely time to gain weight

According to domestic weight loss clinics and some clinical statistical data, October to February of the following year is the season when Chinese people are prone to gain weight. There are two reasons for this: First, the weather starts to turn cooler in October and the temperature drops rapidly. Once the temperature drops, the human body is less likely to sweat and the metabolic rate also decreases, so excess fat in the body is less likely to be broken down. The second reason is that starting from October every year, there are many festivals centered around food, especially Christmas, the year-end party, the Spring Festival and the Lantern Festival. The Chinese people still celebrate mainly through eating, so the calorie storage will increase a lot. However, if you can take advantage of the situation and use the low temperature environment, you can also effectively achieve the goal of controlling your weight.

Is low temperature good for weight loss? Beige fat and brown fat have the effect of promoting metabolic rate and can generate heat

Why is low temperature beneficial for weight loss? Liu Boen, executive director of the Taiwan Obesity Education and Prevention Association and a weight loss specialist, said that before answering the question, we should first understand the body's fat, which can be divided into: white fat, beige fat and brown fat; only brown fat and beige fat have the function of promoting metabolic rate and are "good fat", and this type of fat gradually decreases after birth. Brown cells also have a secret weapon, that is, brown fat contains a large amount of type I uncoupling protein (UCP1), which can speed up the rate at which cells break down fatty acids and generate heat. Once fully activated, it can burn 10% to 20% of the daily basal metabolic rate. In addition, there is beige adipose tissue (BAT), which is between white fat and brown fat and can also produce UCP1. Compared with white fat, beige fat has a higher heat production capacity.

In other words, brown fat and beige fat can produce a lot of heat, increase energy consumption, burn glucose and free fatty acids in the blood, and then metabolize blood sugar and fat, which naturally helps to lose weight. Exercising at low temperatures can also promote the conversion and generation of brown fat, which can burn and produce heat, thereby reducing body weight and body fat.

Some Korean stars have also started using low temperatures to lose weight. They go naked into a barrel at minus 130 degrees Celsius and stand up after about three minutes. It is said to have a weight loss effect.

In order to speed up the secretion of norepinephrine in winter, if you can moderately consume some beverages containing catechins and caffeine (caffeine), also known as caffeine, including catechins in green tea, as well as coffee, cola, energy drinks, carbonated drinks, chocolate and other caffeinated beverages, it can help stimulate the sympathetic nerves and help speed up the body's fat burning.

In winter, the temperature drops and the sympathetic nerves become more active, secreting norepinephrine, which stimulates cells to break down fat and convert it into heat.

In winter, as the temperature drops, the sympathetic nerves become more active in order to maintain the physiological constant temperature mechanism. When the sympathetic nerves are more active, they will secrete norepinephrine (formerly known as "epinephrine"), which stimulates cells to break down fat and convert it into heat. In detail, the activity of brown adipose tissue is controlled by the sympathetic nerves. The sympathetic nerve endings extend into the brown tissue and secrete norepinephrine to stimulate cells to break down fat and convert it into heat.

In order to speed up the secretion of norepinephrine in winter, if you can moderately consume some beverages containing catechins and caffeine (caffeine), also known as caffeine, including catechins in green tea, as well as coffee, cola, energy drinks, carbonated drinks, chocolate and other caffeinated beverages, it can help stimulate the sympathetic nerves and help speed up the body's fat burning rate, and indirectly enhance the activation ability of brown fat.

Reminder: Friends who use low temperature to lose weight should pay attention to whether they have cardiovascular or cerebrovascular diseases

Dr. Liu Bowen reminds that friends who want to try to use low temperature to lose weight should pay special attention to whether they have underlying cardiovascular or cerebrovascular diseases, because blood vessels are prone to contraction in low temperature environments, causing blood pressure to rise. Especially for patients with the above two diseases, they must do warm-up exercises first, and use an incremental method. Do not expose yourself to an extremely low temperature environment all at once, which will not only cause hypothermia and shock, but also increase the risk of sudden death.

Winter is generally considered a season for "weight gain", but as long as you pay a little attention, you can still implement a weight loss plan. Recommended exercises such as general water exercise, especially swimming in low temperatures, are more effective in dissipating heat.

Winter is generally considered a season for "weight gain", but as long as you pay a little attention, you can still implement a weight loss plan. Recommended exercises such as general water exercise, especially swimming in low temperatures, are more effective in dissipating heat. Because walking 100 meters on the road consumes about 35 calories, but walking 100 meters in the water can consume 65 calories. This is because the resistance in the water is about 12 times that of the road.

Always warm up before exercising in cold environments

Reminder: before exercising in a low-temperature environment, you must do warm-up exercises first to avoid sports injuries. Of course, you can also consume more heat-producing foods. First, it can keep you warm, and second, it can increase the metabolic rate, which has a positive effect on reducing fat accumulation.

Different strategies can be adopted to lose weight in different seasons. Generally speaking, summer is a season with high temperatures and is less likely to make you fat. However, because modern people are in air-conditioned environments, there will be some pseudo-hibernation phenomenon when the temperature drops. That is, artificial cooling will actually reduce the metabolic rate. In winter, as long as you pay attention to calorie control and do proper exercise, you can still achieve the effect of losing weight.
