Yes, if this proved safe, I'd take it.
And by "proved safe," I mean "Has been out in the open market for a decade or so with no proof it increases cancer, shrinks brains, explodes spleens, etc."
But, yeah, given that caveat, sure. Why not?

New obesity drug cuts off the blood to your fat supply
News about anti-obesity drugs is pretty common, but many of them never make it past the testing stage in rodents. Now, a new fat-fighting drug has passed the primate test:
Given how much weight (another person, still heavier than I was until 34 or so) I need to lose, how unmotivated I am for most forms of exercise (what energy, and why would I do this?), and how little merely reducing your intake actually works (on the hopeless side) for the seriously overweight, I’d be interested in the clinical trials.
To your list, I’d add “doesn’t leave messes, increase digestive gas, require irreversible surgery”. With the gastric bypass surgeries which nearly eliminate your ability to absorb things like iron and calcium, getting that reversed doesn’t make it easier for your body to absorb vitamins and minerals. Ooops.
Now, about these migraines…since I seem to have the insomnia mostly under control.
How close are we to an anti-stupid pill? I’d buy a case of those!
