In recent research, scientists have achieved a breakthrough that could help those using popular weight-loss medications avoid their harmful side effects.
These medications improve kidney function, reduce the risks of fatal heart attacks, and provide protection against diseases like Alzheimer’s. However, many people stop using them because of common side effects like nausea and vomiting.
Now, a new weight-loss drug can help reduce appetite and burn calories without causing harm.
According to experts, this discovery could offer a new treatment for millions of people suffering from obesity and type 2 diabetes, for whom existing treatments are not effective.
Millions of people worldwide benefit from GLP-1 hormone-based weight-loss drugs.
In the latest research, scientists at the University of Copenhagen have revealed a new powerful drug that can reduce appetite without causing muscle density changes or unpleasant side effects.
Unlike existing treatments, this drug improves insulin sensitivity and increases the body’s ability to burn calories.
In a new study published in Nature journal, scientists tested the effects of activating a molecule called neurokinin 2 receptor (NK2R) in mice.
The researchers found that activating this receptor not only increased calorie burning in a safe manner but also reduced appetite without causing any nausea.
