Skinny Genes Coming Soon?

Post by jocko6889 »

CRISPR is one of many new gene editing techniques scientists are using to bring about health improvements. In a new study, scientists used CRISPR to silence a gene that stores fat in mice, reducing their weight by a stunning 20 percent!

"Perhaps even more incredible is the mice in the study did not reduce food intake or increase exercise, and yet experienced this very significant reduction in fat storage."

Taking into account a large percentage of the population do not do or like exercise, this could be another game changer.

Interesting! This topic minded me of this Freakonomics radio episode I listened to the other day discussing the possibility of "the zero-minute workout" (taking a pill that mimics the effects of exercise): http://freakonomics.com/podcast/exercise/

There's something pretty close already available through Sarm websites called SR 9011. I'm on my 2nd bottle and I'm down 20 pounds over 5 weeks. I haven't changed a thing, however I do work out 4-5 times a week. I didn't add working out into the equation, I already was working out. It's an incredible senescent as well.
