New obesity drug cuts off the blood to your fat supply

[SHINE]

At experimentally determined optimal doses, monkeys from three different species displayed predictable and reversible changes in renal proximal tubule function.

Question is what about people now ?


Very interesting for sure, sure it will be a-while before you see anything like this out on the market since this drug is the prototype.

Shit they must have gone through a few rats and monkeys with this one.

Cutting off blood supply to any part of the body (fat or not) doesnt sound to good.
Lets say someone who is extremely overweight does things the right way through diet and excersize, those blood vessles, veins artieries, whatever else cardiac related in the fatty ares dont just dissapear, they stay in your body.
So a drug that cuts off blood supply to those areas MUST be dangerous imho. I would love to see the warning label on that particular drug.
