As crazy as it might sound, the Cold Shoulder Weight Loss Vest is a piece of clothing that is capable of helping people burn calories throughout the day.
The unique invention was developed by a NASA scientist, which inspired thousands of people to fund the first version of the vest on Kickstarter—in total the project succeeded in securing more than $280,000 in just 30 days.
A new and improved version of the Cold Shoulder Weight Loss Vest will be launching later this year, harnessing the power of Mild Cold Exposure to help people burn up to 500 calories a day. Although eating a well-balanced healthy diet is essential to the success of this vest, the cooling garment is capable of burning calories simply when it is worn by someone sitting in a room at a comfortable temperature. Calories are burned by the energy used from the body to keep itself warm while wearing this ice-filled vest.
