New study out from the UK shows overweight people have a problem with a hormone called PYY which goes from the intestines to the brain to turn off hunger.<br /><br />People in the UK study were given injections of PYY and simply ate 30%+ less each day.<br /><br />Treatements due out in near future once side effects are contolled.<br /><br />Medical Experts on both sides of the Pond are exicted.

Re: PYY - Fat No More!

apparently this is a peripheral peptide YY that is naturally produced AFTER a meal - the body is hit with it three times a day anyway, there shouldnt be any side effects<br /><br />except those raised by the multi BILLION dollar diet industry, lol

Re: PYY - Fat No More!

well now WIEGHT a minute!!!<br /><br />er, wait ...<br /><br />if these subjects were allowed to graze at a buffet, of COURSE they kept eating less and less? how many times can ya hit a buffet??<br /><br />(well, enough to thoroughly p!ss off the manager, who would try to pry the rib tray out of my hands screaming YOU GO HOME! YOU BE HERE FOUR HOU-AH! WHY YOU NO EAT VEGETABLE?)<br /><br />hehehe ... if I wanted vegetables chang, Id a eaten yer mother!!!<br /><br />but seriously, I dont see a downside to this .. lots of studies have confirmed that the absence of ghrelin (ghrelin producing areas are moved downstream with the barometric proceedures becoming WAY too common today, gastric bypass in all its incarnations)results in profound changes in appetite, WAY less food is needed to obtain saiety<br /><br />so increase PYY, supress that dammned ghrelin, and voila, problem solved. (no my thin friends, its often NOT a matter of a dozen hot dogs, three gallons of ice cream, and a quarter keg of beer to wash it down, do NOT believe that drivel doled out by the National Perspirer!)<br /><br /> :p

It could change the world! (And as you point out, cost a lot of people a lot of $$$)<br /><br />Love your chineese buffet parity... WHY YOU NO EAT VEGETABLE ... too funny. I can picture it.
