THIN ICE PRODUCT
|
Burn an estimated 500-1000 calories a day. Just by wearing your clothes. Thin Ice is the first technologically-enhanced weight-loss apparel that hacks your metabolism to help you lose weight. |
How the metabolic hack works
Did you know you can trick your body into thinking it’s in a colder environment than it actually is by stimulating specific regions with cold temperatures? This creates a cascade of physiological responses in your body that kick your metabolism into overdrive, As a result, you burn unwanted fat and get leaner, all while letting your body do the work for you!
Based on estimates derived from our prototypes, competitors and scientific literature we estimate that you'll be able to burn between 500 and 1000 calories a day, just by wearing our clothing for the recommended duration. That's 1 to 2 pounds a week!

Wait, won’t I feel cold?
Don’t worry, this stimulation is so mild you’ll forget all about it after just a few seconds of adaptation. The same concept is at play every time you wade into a pool. You feel cold for a few seconds and then the sensation vanishes. The pool doesn’t warm up, it’s your body that starts to burn from within to counteract its new environment.
Besides, if you do feel the chill you can always adjust the temperature of your Thin Ice clothing via smartphone to accommodate your comfort level. At Thin Ice, we want to have a long-term weight-management relationship with you. It's not in our best interest to scare you away by making you uncomfortably cold!

How Does Thin Ice Clothing Harness the Metabolism Hack?
The Thin Ice insole and vest target regions of your body with high concentrations of thermoreceptors. These neural receptors alert your body to the presence of cold, triggering a metabolic response that generates heat in your core.
As the core’s blood warms, it then must be pumped all the way to the extremities. The best part of this process is that your body does all this calorie-expensive work automatically without you even having to think about it.

What's the Science Behind Thin Ice!?
The bodily pathway responsible for this heat generation is called the Brown Adipose Tissue (BAT) pathway. This pathway basically functions as your body’s internal thermostat. Even in room temperature, roughly 50% of your daily calories are burnt for no other reason than to keep your body at a comfortable temperature.
Notice that you undergo NO shivering at room temperature. This is because the BAT pathway is completely different than the shivering mechanism. Thin Ice stimulates BAT and will not make you shiver. This allows Thin Ice’s patent-pending weight-loss technology to help you burn excess calories while being hidden discretely in clothing and apparel items.

What comprises Thin Ice Technology?
Thin Ice technology uses specialized Peltier cooling chips to chill specific areas of the body. Peltier chips are also found in other technologies with compact cooling requirements such as microprocessors and various electronics. They essentially act as heat pumps, forcing heat to one side and leaving the other side cool.
These chips are powered by an unobtrusive, rechargable battery. The warmed sides of the Peltier chips are located on the bottom of the insole. The warmth generated by the Peltier mechanism can be dissipated through a variety of heat sink materials.
There are also technologies that are able to capture heat and convert heat into electricity that are currently being explored by our engineering team. The Thin Ice engineering team is currently hard at work making sure the best possible heat dissipation/capturing mechanisms are combined in the final prototype for maximal comfort and battery efficiency. Hey, that reminds me, meet our engineering team!
Wireless Connectivity
Thin Ice products use Bluetooth to connect with your smart device.
Using your smartphone and the Thin Ice App you can change the temperature of your clothing to suit your comfort level, track how many calories you’ve burnt on a second by second basis, and set a delayed onset timer to activate the devices when you’re ready.
Battery
Thin ice insole features a removable battery that quickly snaps into place and is rechargeable through mechanisms within the technology that harness the kinetics of you just walking around as well as the use of a charging plate.
