SCIENTISTS have created an exercise pill that tricks cells into thinking they are undergoing serious exertion and so helps the body burn extra fat.

I am leery on this one… Just how will your body react?

It appears to work by flicking a master switch within cells that regulates the laying down or burning of fat.

So, if one is thinner, but doesn’t exercise, will they reap the same benefits of carrying out a physical regimen?

Such a drug could, he suggests, reduce fatty tissue, lower amounts of fat circulating in the blood, cut blood glucose levels and reduce resistance to insulin, limiting the risks of heart disease and diabetes.

Hmm…

Such discoveries did not lead to potential new treatments because the genetic engineering that created the mice had to be carried out before birth and would be unacceptable for humans.

I think it is safe to say that this is very preliminary. Sometimes the good ol’ fashion way yields the greatest return. Slow and steady wins the race, right?

Type 2 diabetes is linked to obesity, and experts believe up to half of all cases could be prevented through changes to diet and exercise.

Plain as day…be proactive!
