• Boost Metabolism: Activates brown fat to help increase calorie burning and improve metabolic function.
• Support Weight Loss: Helps stimulate the body's natural fat-burning processes through cold exposure.
• Emerging Health Benefits: Scientific studies, including those exploring cancer therapy, suggest potential broader health benefits of cold exposure.
• Safe Cold Therapy: Non-invasive and scientifically supported, cold therapy provides a safe and effective tool for improving metabolic health.

Exposing the body to cold temperatures through the use of a vest, waist trimmer, leg wraps, or arm wraps with phase change cooling packs at 59°F (15°C) stimulates a process called non-shivering thermogenesis, which is mediated by the activation of brown adipose tissue, also known as brown fat. Non-shivering thermogenesis has several potential health benefits, including weight loss and improved metabolic health.

Here is a summary of some of the published research investigating health benefits of activated brown fat:

Weight loss: Some studies have suggested that non-shivering thermogenesis helps with weight loss. For example, a study published in the journal Diabetes, Obesity, and Metabolism found that exposing the body to cold temperatures increased energy expenditure and led to weight loss in obese individuals (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3396238/).

Obesity: Research has suggested that non-shivering thermogenesis is a potential treatment for obesity. For example, a review published in the journal Frontiers in Endocrinology found that activating brown fat may help reduce body weight and improve metabolic health in obese individuals (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5414507/).

Diabetes: Activating brown fat may also be beneficial for people with diabetes. A study published in the journal Diabetes Care found that exposing the body to cold temperatures improved insulin sensitivity in people with type 2 diabetes (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3073607/).

Cardiovascular disease: Studies have suggested that activating brown fat has a protective effect on the cardiovascular system. A study published in the journal Nature Medicine found that activating brown fat improved cardiovascular health in mice (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3879259/).

Osteoporosis: Activating brown fat may also benefit bone health. A study published in the journal Cell Reports found that activating brown fat increased bone density in mice (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4747003/).

Alzheimer’s: Activating brown fat may have a protective effect on brain health and may be beneficial for people with Alzheimer’s disease. A study published in the journal Aging Cell found that activating brown fat improved cognitive function in mice (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5624615/).

Cancer: New research suggests that activating brown fat may have anti-cancer effects by slowing growth of tumors by reducing available glucose. A study published in the journal Nature found that activating brown fat slowed the growth of cancer tumors in mice and in humans (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4407722/).

Note that while these studies suggest that non-shivering thermogenesis and activating brown fat has potential health benefits, more research is needed to fully understand the effects and potential risks of these interventions. It’s always a good idea to consult with a healthcare professional before making any significant changes to your diet or exercise routine.

My cooling packs are lumpy and or twisted?

Cool2Shape cooling pack change from liquid to solid. They must be flat to use so lay them flat in your freezer when liquid.

What do I do if I do not have a lot of freezer space?

Ideally cooling packs should lay flat and not be on top of each other for the fastest change to solid – ready to use – state. You can fold larger Cool2Shape cooling packs in half along a seam and stack, they will just take longer to turn solid.

Can I use a refridgerator or ice in a cooler?

Yes. Exposure to any temperature below 59F will change the cooling packs to solid – it may take overnight in a fridge. A cooler with ice will also work very fast but be sure to lay flat and add plenty of water to have a icy cold mix.

Why are my cooling packs falling off when I try to attach to the neoprene?

Try turning the cooling pack over. The hook part of the hook and loop (Velcro®) has to face the loop fabric on the side of the vest or wrap that faces your body.

Where do I attach cooling packs on vest?

Attach packs to front and back of the vest leaving the shoulder strap area clear.

How do I know when to re-freeze the cooling packs?

At room temperature your cooling packs will last for about 2 hours. Check the packs by looking at them. If you still see some white solids the pack is still working.

How long and how often should I use Cool2Shape?

At 59F the cooling packs are comfortable even against the skin. If you want to wear against your skin, take the cooling packs out of the freezer and wait 10 minutes to allow them to warm up first. Wearing Cool2Shape simulates our natural human state of being outdoors in mild cold. Once a day over 4 to 6 weeks is the typical cooling protocol used in studies. Wearing additional hours is possible but not necessary.

Size guide:

The Cool2Shape line of wearable cooling is one size fits most. We do not recommend combining the waist wrap with the vest if you are shorter than 5'2 or have a very short torso as cooling packs will overlap and be redundant.

Contact us for additional sizing assisance.

Height range 4'10-6'8

Weight range 100 lbs - 300 lbs

Waist belt length 48" but can stretch to 53". Belts may be doubled for extended length.

Max waist/chest expansion for vest is about approximately 55"

Should I use the vest or arm and leg wraps? Can I use them all together?

Increasing the area of the body that is cooled can accelerate brown fat activation. We recommend you start with the vest or the vest combined with a waist wrap as the best options to start with. If you are short or have a short torso, you may only need the vest. The leg wraps and arm wraps are covering areas of major blood flow and improve overall cooling so should be added if possible.

How does the Cool2Shape™ vest activate brown fat? The vest and wraps expose specific areas of your body to controlled cold temperatures, which stimulates the activation of brown fat. This type of fat burns calories to generate heat, helping to boost metabolism and support weight loss.

Can cold exposure support other health goals? Yes, recent scientific studies suggest that cold exposure may have broader health benefits, including potential applications in cancer therapy, due to its impact on metabolic regulation.

How long should I wear the Cool2Shape™ vest and wraps? For optimal results, wear the vest and wraps for 120 minutes per session. The cooling effect lasts up to 120 minutes, depending on ambient temperature and your body heat.

How do I recharge the cooling packs? Simply place the cooling packs in the freezer for at least 4 hours before use. The packs are reusable and designed for long-term use.

Is the Cool2Shape™ vest safe? Yes, the Cool2Shape™ vest provides non-invasive, controlled cold exposure backed by scientific research. It is safe for regular use to activate brown fat and improve metabolic health.What if I am a resident of California?
