Having a cup of coffee a day can help you lose weight: it's a discovery made by scientists at the University of Nottingham, so if you're a coffee lover this news will add a lot of extra points to your favorite drink.
According to experts a cup of coffee a day stimulates the so-called "brown fat", which is nothing more than a mechanism that gives the battle to fats and, if that were not enough, would be essential to combat obesity and diabetes.
The research was published by Scientific Reports and is one of the first to be conducted in humans to determine which components could directly and favorably impact the functions of brown fat, an element that is indispensable to burn calories and convert them into energy.
The so-called brown adipose tissue, commonly known as brown fat, is present in humans and other mammalian species.
Although it was believed to be present only in infants and mammals that tend to hibernate, it was recently determined that adults may also have this compound whose function is to generate heat by burning calories.
In contrast, white fat is the result of excessive calorie storage.
Those who are blessed with a lower body mass index (BMI) are those who have more brown fat.
According to Michael Symonds, of the University of Nottingham School of Medicine, who was part of the study team, brown fat generates heat by burning fat and sugar regularly in response to cold.
So raising its activity generates better control of blood sugar and fat, so when you burn extra calories you lose weight.

The team of researchers studied stem cells to determine if this delicious drink would help stimulate so-called brown fat. Thus, they managed to stimulate the ideal dose and then began to test it in humans to find out if the results were positive.
The technique used to draw their conclusion was the so-called "thermal image," by which they identified brown fat and measured its ability to generate heat.
In this way they identified positive results. They now concentrate on whether caffeine, the main ingredient of coffee, acts as a stimulus or whether it contains another component that helps to stimulate brown fat.
They also analyze caffeine supplements to determine if they respond in the same way. You may have wondered how many cups of coffee a day are safe for health? Here's what we tell you.
