    Yet another false headline

    potential as an obesity drug.

    So just call it that! Exercise is so much more than losing weight (for I sure hope they mean obesity reducing drug)

    An ‘Exercise Pill’ would also keep your joints flexible, improve you balance, build muscle tissue, improve heart and veins etc etc etc etc

      I’d rather take it at face value and assume modern medical science is finally allowing us to substitute pills for normal body usage.

      For one thing, I’m tired of having to go to the bathroom on a regular basis. Can I get a piss pill to experience an empty bladder without the tedium of actually peeing?

        Every time you take a piss pill it just moves the urine from your balls to your stomach.

        I dunno where the bladder came into play but I guess if you’re weird it can be involved.
