Researchers in France claim to have found a way to use your immunce system to help you lose weight.

It’s said that cytokine interleukin-7 could be the key to weight loss. Here’s what was said:

The cytokine interleukin-7 (IL-7), an element of the immune system that is critical for maintaining the proper store of immune cells, also prevents obesity-prone mice from getting fat, the researchers reported at the 6th International Congress of Neuroendocrinology (ICN 2006) in Pittsburgh June 19 - 22 at the David L. Lawrence Convention Center.

But like many drugs in the early stages of development it’s hard to say if anything will come of this.

Nicole Richie Uses Hoodia

Filed Under Celebrity Weight Loss | 1 Comment

I looks like one of Nicole Richie’s friends leeked a report to a British magazine that Nicole uses the weight loss supplement hoodia gordonii.

If you don’t know hoodia is used to control hunger, and that would make sense because judging by her looks I would say that Nicole is not eating very much these days.
