A newly developed weight loss injection could offer the benefits of risky slimming surgeries without going under the knife.
Scientists have created a new compound that reduced hunger, boosted calorie burning and lowered blood sugar levels when tested on lab animals. Current jags like Wegovy and Ozempic that treat type 2 diabetes offer similar slimming results - but come with brutal side effects - like nausea and vomiting.
While such injections are making waves on social media as the next weight loss solution, this new compound can shed pounds without causing negative symptoms. Though not available, scientists presented their findings at the spring meeting of the American Chemical Society (ACS) on Wednesday.
