00:00So this pill has been proven to show that you maintain 75% of your previous weight loss after a
00:06year by taking the pill on a daily basis.
00:10Now, that's of great interest because it means that people could stabilise their blood pressure, their cholesterol levels, their diabetes
00:17control by taking the pill for life.
00:21However, there's of course a downside, there always is. Do we actually need a pill to help people maintain their
00:26weight loss?
00:27If they've got the wraparound services, and by that I mean the psychological guidance as to what meal, what food
00:34choices to have, the exercise that is so important to maintain muscle, bulk and volume and strength.
00:40If they're doing all of that, do they need a pill, which is going to be quite costly when you
00:45think that two thirds of the adult population of the UK is either overweight or obese.
00:49That's scary, isn't it?
00:50So there is always a downside.
00:51Small trial, it's going to be available right now in the United States and it's probably going to become available
00:56quite soon in the UK.
