Tummy Botox


Tummy Botox a way to lose weight?

London - Botox, the anti-wrinkle treatment, is being tested as a way to tackle obesity in a new trial on patients in Norway. 

When injected into stomach wall muscles, it slows the speed at which food travels through the stomach — in theory, this makes patients feel fuller for longer, so they eat less. Animal studies have suggested it could reduce weight by up to a third in five weeks.
