White fat stores excess energy, while brown and beige fat dissipate energy as heat 1 . These thermogenic adipose tissues markedly improve glucose and lipid homeostasis in mouse models, though the extent to which brown adipose tissue (BAT) influences metabolic and cardiovascular disease in humans is unclear 2, 3, 4 .
