    Abstract

    Thermogenesis is related to the process by which the body generates heat. It can happen with the help of many metabolic processes along with digestion, excrecise as well as shivering. Non shivering thermogenesis is primarily regulated by brown adipose tissue (BAT) as well as very few hormones and it is regulated by T4, T3, Nor epinephrine as well as leptin. Physiological significance of non shivering thermogenesis is to stop hypothermia by producing heat. Shivering thermogemesis is a rapid as well as temporary mechanism to regulate core body temperature. Shivering thermogenesis is dependent on different mechanisms such as cold exposure, muscle contractions, enhanced metabolism and heat generation. Chemical thermogenesis is based on various mechanisms namely uncoupling (UCP) pathway, brown adipose tissue (BAT) and chemical reactions
