Heat production to burn more fat?

Question
What can increase heat production to burn more fat?  

Answer

Hi Debbie,

You literally 'burn' fat by increasing heat production through a process called thermogenesis. Your brain sends signals to the fat pads to start the process. In experiments, if the nerve connected to a certain fat pad was cut, this fat deposit would not burn fat at all. This is why stimulants like now banned ephedrin, caffeine, and yohimbine are good thermogetics.

Actually, all foods can elevate your body temperature after a meal, but some do it better than others. For example, refined carbohydrates produce more after-meal heat than complex starches, high-fat foods elevate body temperature more than high-fiber foods.

However, refined carbs and the like will put into your body more energy that you can expect to burn through the enhanced thermogenesis while fats seem to be different in this respect.
