Chilling the Tumor: How Cold Exposure May Help Fight Cancer

13 May 2025

Description

In this episode, we explore an exciting scientific breakthrough — the discovery that exposure to cold temperatures can activate brown adipose tissue (BAT), also known as brown fat, which in turn suppresses tumor growth. We discuss how this natural thermogenic tissue, previously known for its role in heat generation, may offer a novel metabolic strategy to combat cancer. Drawing on recent research, this episode breaks down the biological mechanisms behind this effect and its potential implications for future cancer therapies.
