Can you “freeze off” calories? How does it work and is it effective at all?

Question

Since we cant go out and I’m just a bit cold in here and I’m eating chocolate I was wondering

Can being cold help loosing weight, by burning more calories to keep your body warm? And maybe also quivering cause of the relative cold?

(I obviously dont mean literally 0°C freezing, just colder than “standard” room temperature)

Answer 1

There is a professor in California who developed a waistcoat which holds multiple freezer bottles against your body. He claims that it is not uncomfortable and is effective in weight loss.
