Drug helps monkeys lose weight, are humans next?
Just because the monkeys are taking the drug doesn’t mean we should take the drug.

Sourced and proven by laboratory studies show results “…interesting sections
on comparative anatomy, perceptual capabilities, and social behavior of various species, and recognizes the wide range of physical abilities, interests, and needs of species within the order Primata. (La Revue veterinaire canadienne, Kay G. Mehren, 1997 July) ”
There are various anatomical comparisons between mammals. Eating vegetables is one example. Some invertebrates are able to digest vegetables via the cellulose-digesting enzyme cellulase. The cellulose enzyme is present in their intestinal tracts. Comparatively, invertebrates do not have this is enzyme; neither monkeys nor humans. Yet, we still eat vegetables, which we rely heavily upon as major energy sources.
More lab tests may prove that the drug could work on humans as they did on the lab monkeys.
“If the drug were to prove successful in humans it would never be permanent solution, experts say. It would be a kick-start used along with future diet and exercise (By Robert Bazell Chief science and health correspondent, NBC news)
Truthful and interesting, this is. Think about this. The drug would just be a kick-start system. Nowadays, only off-road motorcycles and ATVs use kick start systems. Even then, they are an alternative to electric starters. Electric starters are too heavy for those activities.
Kick start systems start an internal combustion engine. An internal combustion engine uses the combustion of fossil fuels with O2 inside a combustion chamber. High pressures create a force applied to the pistons, turbine blades, etc. The force then moves the component over a distance, thus transforming the chemical energy into mechanical energy.
If your body always needs a kick start you aren’t utilizing the best way towards wellness. A healthy body needs continuous combustion like powerful engines including gas turbines, jet engines, and most rocket engines.
So, this news isn’t new because there are millions of diet drugs already available. If you really need a kick-start weight-loss drug, you should know that mentally you will have to be willing to continue with the weight loss process on your own.
The battle is known as: GET UP AND WORKOUT.
