New research could settle "Bedroom Thermostat Wars"
SEATTLE -- For decades, couples have been fighting about how cold or how hot their bedrooms should be. New research may help (or hurt) your argument.

That's because the body needs to burn calories to maintain your body temperature. They found that people even burned a few more calories during the day, and had a lower diabetes risk.
