Prior to beginning a new diet you should undergo a health screening with your physician to confirm that a new diet is suitable for you and to rule out any conditions and contraindications that may pose risks or are incompatible with a new diet, including by way of example: conditions affecting the kidneys, liver or pancreas; muscular dystrophy; pregnancy; breast-feeding; being underweight; eating disorders; any health condition that requires a special diet [other conditions or contraindications]; hypoglycemia; or type 1 diabetes. A new diet may or may not be appropriate if you have type 2 diabetes, so you must consult with your physician if you have this condition. Anyone under the age of 18 should consult with their physician and their parents or legal guardian before beginning such a diet.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the optimal protein podcast. I'm Vanessa Spina. |
| 0:05.8 | Hello, my friends. Welcome back to the optimal protein podcast. I'm your host, Vanessa Spina. I am so |
| 0:12.3 | happy to be here with you today. We're doing a deep dive today on brown fat, which is our more |
| 0:18.3 | metabolically active fat and how we can actually convert more of our |
| 0:23.5 | white fat, our white adipose tissue, into beige and brown adipose tissue. And what this means |
| 0:30.8 | in terms of being able to burn more energy and actually waste more energy, but also repair our mitochondria. |
| 0:39.3 | And we're going to introduce a new topic today, which is mitochondrial uncoupling. |
| 0:43.8 | You may be familiar with it. |
| 0:45.4 | You may not, but this is going to be a theme in some of the next episodes. |
| 0:50.2 | And I have been learning so much about mitochondrial uncoupling and how ketones are playing a massive |
| 0:57.9 | role in this. And we're going to touch on it a little bit in today's episode, but we're mostly |
| 1:02.6 | going to be talking about brown adipose tissue and our white adipose tissue and some of the |
| 1:08.1 | scientific research showing how cold exposure works and how it activates |
| 1:14.2 | this browning of our white adipose tissue but then also has this uncoupling effect on our |
| 1:21.0 | mitochondria that helps us to waste energy and it is absolutely fascinating and I think understanding the mechanisms behind cold exposure |
| 1:30.5 | make it that much more appealing to actually do. So today we're going to be talking about the |
| 1:36.1 | different types of fat, how we can activate them and then how we can basically convert more |
| 1:42.9 | of our white adipose tissue through this browning effect and also |
| 1:46.7 | introducing this new concept of mitochondrial uncoupling. And I am so, so excited to be diving |
| 1:53.0 | deep on this topic with you all. Today we're specifically talking about cold exposure and also |
| 1:58.3 | exercise and some of the research behind that and then talking a little bit |
| 2:03.2 | more about this mitochondrial and coupling. So I'm so excited to get into it with you all today. |
