Article Abstract:
Several scientists believe that obesity is not a problem of lack of willpower on the part of the person concerned, but is a medical condition. New research has offered insights into genetics, proteins, hormones, and even a virus, that could lead to personalized weight loss, and even an injection or a pill to 'cure' fatness.
