The pill allows a person to lose weight without making lifestyle adjustments or exercising. “As it decreases the body-weight and the thickness of subcutaneous fat without applying any diet or exercise cure, the pill is believed to be superior to existing remedies of obesity or foreign pills or other means of treatment,” an article published by a state-media outlet read.
The problem with North Korean research is that the claims are rarely supported by published results, and there is no way for foreign experts to test them, NK News noted. Cont.
