    Kinda reminds me of dinitrophenol (DNP), another miracle weight loss pill that converted stored calories to heat.

    Works great up until it literally cooks you to death.

    This new method of converting white fat to brown fat to heat sounds like it’s in that same neighborhood.

    If it works, cool! But be cautious if you see a bottle of some shit claiming to do this at your local pharmacy.
