Quest For Weight-Loss Drug Takes An Unusual Turn

From The New York Times

"A pill to make you thin: it has long been a dieter's dream. But despite intense, if not desperate interest from the public -- 60 million Americans are obese -- and eagerness from drug companies to meet the demand, efforts to develop weight-loss drugs have been disappointing. The human body seems to guard its fat stores jealously, and attempts to outsmart the system often fail outright or backfire, causing dangerous side effects. "

It's like what they used to say in those old commercials: "You can't fool Mother Nature."

Eat Right. Live Better.
