            "description": "Most of the fat we carry is white adipose tissue, the body’s primary energy-storage system, designed to stockpile excess calories for later use. In contrast, brown adipose tissue burns energy to generate heat, especially during cold exposure. Cryotherapy enthusiasts claim that extreme cold can activate brown fat and rapidly torch calories, but the science behind these dramatic weight-loss promises is less convincing than the marketing.",

            "description": "For decades, body mass index (BMI) has been the dominant tool for defining obesity, despite longstanding concerns that it poorly reflects individual health risk. Growing evidence suggests that the waist-to-height ratio, a simple measure of abdominal fat distribution, outperforms BMI in predicting cardiometabolic disease and mortality. Now, with large-scale data confirming its advantages and the US military adopting it as a new fitness standard, this long-overlooked metric may finally be moving into the mainstream.",
