Cold-Weather Benefit: Shivering May Count As Exercise
“Shivering triggers a response in muscles similar to that of exercise, new research suggests. The study, published today (Feb. 4) in the journal Cell Metabolism, found that the muscles of shivering people triggers the release of a hormone that activates brown fat, a type of fat that burns energy to generate heat.”
Evidence That Shivering and Exercise May Convert White Fat to Brown
“A new study suggests that shivering and bouts of moderate exercise are equally capable of stimulating the conversion of energy-storing ‘white fat’ into energy-burning ‘brown fat’.”
Brown Fat – Keeps You Warm And Keeps You Slim

They added that the findings of their study could eventually be used to find ways of fighting obesity. Not much has been known about brown fat, a type of good fat, until recently.”
