First seen Mar 15, 2026 · Last updated May 13, 2026 · Updated 7 times

Summary

This study tested whether special food supplement capsules that release nutrients in the lower gut can increase appetite-regulating hormones and reduce food intake. Twenty adults with obesity took either the active supplement or a placebo on separate days, and researchers measured hormone levels and calorie consumption. The goal was to see if this approach could help manage appetite and support weight control.
