Full Belly: Swallowable, Self-Inflating Pill May Help Weight Loss Unlisted Video

A new type of pill may be the key to helping people lose weight. According to UPI, a capsule called the EndoPil contains a balloon that expands in the stomach with help of a magnet. After swallowing the pill and drinking a glass of water, an activation magnet on EndoPil is triggered by another magnet outside of the body to start expansion of the balloon. While similar inflatable devices already exist for weight loss, patients have to have them surgically inserted in their stomachs.
