It seems like all these magical pills are just on the horizon...an horizon that we seem to never be able to reach.

This does not sound real. I'm skinny, and no matter how much I eat, my weight never changes. Personally, I think I'm defective, same as every other skinny person. It simply makes no sense to discard food energy, like my body seems to do. Surely "fat" people are the normal non-defective humans who's bodies properly store their food?
The mere concept that a body might "burn fat" (whatever that's supposed to mean, and it seems, without you even doing anything) in order to prepare to on-board more fat a patently absurd statement.

And does it help keep the weight off permanently? What about the body adapting to and requiring increasing amounts of the drug? I doubt the body's key mechanism to survive can be fooled easily.

Sign me up for the trial!

Really?? Just another hocus-pocus, scam product trying to be the next miracle cure for weight/fat loss. If this gets to market, the only thing that will lose weight is one's wallet. Getting tired of all these diet du jours...

Doesn't your stomack secrete acid when it senses your eating ? The acid will start eating your stomach if it can't attack food.

Diet pill shmiet pill. What I need is a pill to make me young again. It could happen.

Right! Read the titles and dates of the related articles. Soon!

Call me gullible, but I love this idea. I think Ben Coxworth has written a clear account of a difficult metabolic process, whose benefits are pretty straightforward: encouraging the body to burn fat => even when a person has not eaten. This is the foundation of all credible weight-loss programs: Eat less than you metabolize. The mental aspect--I feel hungry--is the great hurdle. This treatment addresses that directly, yes?

If you cut down on the amount of food you eat, and do a little excercise, you lose weight. Okay, right now its just a theory....
