Scientists have developed a vaccine that may one day be used to prevent obesity

US researchers have developed a vaccine which prevents weight gain in rats, offering clues about human treatments.

The vaccine prompts the body to produce antibodies against ghrelin, a hormone that stimulates hunger and weight gain.

Here we have it folks, something that fifty years ago would have been the most useless vaccine ever created. Now it may one day allow people to eat as many Krispy Kremes as they damn well please. Far be it for anyone to change their habits and stop stuffing themselves with food, we can just vaccinate against it. Apparently all of the worlds real diseases have been cured so the researchers had time to work on this.
