A study published in *Nature* that examined the medical records of more than 100,000 patients found that depression was less common among those whose scans showed brown fat: 5.4%, compared with 8.2% among those without detectable brown fat. Anxiety disorders were also less common in the group with brown fat. The association persisted after accounting for health and environmental factors, but it does not prove that brown fat improves mental health. The researchers suggested that it may instead be linked to a healthier metabolic profile and lower levels of inflammation. Use of some antidepressants in the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) class was also associated with a lower likelihood of detectable brown fat.
