FDA approves weight-loss stomach pump to fight obesity.


For those who have tried everything to lose weight but has failed.Here is the Good news.

The Food and Drug Administration has approved an unusual weight-loss device on Tuesday,an external pump that dumps part of the stomach contents in the toilet.

Some critics have called it ''bulimia'' but the device,approved for very obese patients has helped to lose an average of 12 percents of body fat far more than diet and pills.

The device is minimally invasive and it include a tube that goes from inside the stomach to a port on the outside of the abdomen.The pump can be attached to the outside port as needed to remove about a third of the stomach contents at a time.
