Scientists have discovered a hormone that mimics the effects of exercise

Just one injection curbs weight gain and diabetes in mice. No lycra required.

Nice video about the new oh-my-god-I-want-it hormone.

This video seems to be talking about the same drug, which has the same effect. I want this stuff real bad!!!

Scientists have discovered a hormone that, when used on mice, boosts metabolism and combats the weight gain that's caused by a high-fat Western diet - you know, all that stuff that exercise does.

Thank goodness! I was so tired of having to share the exercise machines at my gym with all those fat mice!

Now they can all stay home and sit on little couches while they watch teeny tiny televisions. Cool
