Weight thanks to the electronic chip implantation

The chip contains the types of genes are implanted in the arm will keep checking the fats in the blood, and when the patient eats too much, it will produce a hormone that prevents the feeling of hunger.

The first version of this device when tested on white mice caused obese mice ate less food and reduced body weight.

Notably, this device will stop emitting the agents help lose weight when the patient reached normal weight.

The Swiss researchers hope that within the next 5-10 years to come they will create a version of chips with the size only by a coin and can be implanted under the thin layer of skin in the arms.

The journal Nature Communications has posted a report pointing out that the chip contains two types of genes work together to control the appetite.

The second will control the concentration of fat in the blood. When this concentration is too high, it signals for the second type of impact reduces appetite.

Professor Martin Fussenegger, who invented the device, said the chip contains a mix of different gene types can be developed to handle the other type of disease. If effective, this device would be the perfect alternative for expensive weight loss drugs have to drink several times a day and also caused the other side effects such as stomach pain.

Obesity can reduce to 9 years at a person's lifespan and increase the risk of encountering a series of health problems, including diabetes, heart disease, stroke, infertility, depression and some cancers.

A member of the research team, said: "humanity is experiencing major problems in weight. According to the World Health Organization, more than half of the population in many industrialized countries are overweight, for 3 persons who are obese. The habit of consuming the foods calories and fat not only cause the obesity is clearly shown on the body parts like hips, buttocks and abdomen, it also left traces in the blood, where the different fats are created from the digestion of food. Blood fat are considered as a factor leading to the risk of heart attack and stroke. "

If there is proper funding, type of chip can be tested on humans for the first time in about three years. And if products are proven to be safe, effective, then you probably will be popularized a few years later.

However, Uk experts warned that it is difficult to generate a large amount of reduced chip in body weight and have the ability to work long term.=
