Now wouldn’t that be nice! What everyone wants — just take a pill and watch the weight magically melt away! Sounds too good to be true? Well, that’s because it is! Deep down, everyone knows you can’t eat too much, exercise too little, and get rid of excess pounds. Unfortunately, we seem to keep hoping that this might happen — and drugs companies are feverishly trying to fight the world’s obesity crisis with pills that might do just that. There are pills that boost the metabolism. And some pills designed to treat other medical conditions have side effects of weight loss. Unfortunately, these pills rarely achieve sufficient weight loss.

A report released this week about the new obesity drug lorcaserin screamed the headline Weight-loss Data Expected to Underwhelm. The most telling line from this report was the sentence noting the results are expected to show that the tested drug is only “about 4 percentage points more effective in promoting weight loss than a dummy pill.”
