NEAT does not mean being tidy here, which is still a healthy habit that one should adopt but is an acronym that stands for Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis. In simple words, these are the activities of the human body that would not be considered exercise.
According to the American Council on Exercise people who show high rates of these activities can see an increase in their metabolism by 50%.

• The role of hormones

Leptin is another hormone that plays a role in losing weight. It is the hormone that signals the level of energy you have to perform a task. People with a slimmer physique have higher amounts of Leptin making it easier for them to lose weight and control cravings.
