Study Summary
Brown adipose tissue becomes activated during cold conditions to increase thermogenesis (i.e., energy expenditure). Topical menthol application increases resting energy expenditure but it is unclear whether brown adipose tissue activation contributes to this rise in the energy expenditure. The overall goal with this project is to determine whether topical menthol application stimulates brown adipose tissue.
