Scientists at Nottingham Trent University and University of Edinburgh found removing a gene from fat tissue can trick the body into speeding up its metabolism and burning more calories without the need for regular dieting.
The study focused on a protein called PHD2 which is found at high levels in brown adipose tissue, a type of body fat that is activated in cold temperatures to help keep us warm.
Researchers hope this could help protect against metabolic diseases that often come with obesity.
