Exercise in a Pill
Today on the Oprah Winfrey Show.
A lady from from Perth, Australia asked Dr. Oz her about her struggle with her weight. She doesn’t like to exercise much. She wanted to know about the exercise pill. Is it healthy, does it exist, and does it work?
Is there a Diet Pill That Works ?
Oprah said, if there was an exercise pill she would have had it and it would have become one of her favorite things.
Dr. Oz said that the study looked at mitochondria. People that exercise have lots of mitochondria that burn calories and those that do not exercise don’t have as much mitochondria.
Researchers developed a pill that they gave to rats and those that received the pills had better capability at exercising and were better at burning calories.
Dr. Oz thinks that there will be eventually pills that will work in humans. He did say that it would be much better if a person can exercise, to actually exercise.
