So far, the experimental exercise pills are working in mice, say researchers from the Salk Institute for Biological Studies. Their new report shows sedentary mice that got one of the drugs for four weeks burned more calories and had less fat than those that did not take it. The second drug boosted the rodents’ endurance during their workouts.
Researchers don’t know how well those results might translate to people. But they say someday, the drugs might help treat obesity, diabetes and people with medical conditions that keep them from exercising.
Put me down for a couple dozen boxes.
Wow, if it ever comes to fruition, I’m sure it will be a tremendous help for many people. In the meantime though, we should still encourage people that they have the power to help themselves on many levels. Keep up the great work, FatFighter!
These types of things always make me a little nervous. It always seems like when we find a quick fix, there are tons of side effects. It would definitely help a lot of people.

Yeah, quick fixes make me nervous, too. It’ll be interesting to see how this all plays out.
