Scientists are one step closer to developing an 'exercise pill'

Researchers are one step closer to developing a weight loss pill that replicates the calorie-burning effects of the gym.
A study from the University of California at Berkeley found that activating baby fat - the 'brown' fat cells that help newborn babies regulate their body temperature - could help adults burn more calories.
Unlike white fat cells that are just for storing excess energy, brown fat cells operate similarly to muscle cells and can turn fat and sugars into heat.
More than 70 percent of Americans over 20 are overweight and nearly 40 percent are obese.
Yay, more pills

Good. Maybe my health insurance premiums will start going down if all you fatties get a little skinnier

I doubt a pill is going to counteract 3 big Macs and a liter cola.

Overweight is not a mean based system.

I just cannot fathom how something like this would be healthy for one's heart.

How about people stop shoveling garbage into their gullet and live an active lifestyle?

I wonder if all the body-positive SJW fatties who tell everyone that big women are beautiful and that we should not fat-shame would be munching on these pills.

I was given this same advice in college as a way to lose my virginity. Changed my life. I still live by it.
