MIT researchers develop adjustable gastric balloon that reduced food intake by 60% in animal trials.
Researchers at MIT have created an inflatable gastric balloon that can be adjusted by the user to control appetite, potentially offering an alternative to weight-loss surgery or medications.
In animal trials, the balloon, which is connected to an external control device, reduced daily food intake by 60%.
While promising, further clinical trials in humans are needed to assess its safety and efficacy.
