Researchers at Imperial College London believe the treatment, an injection of a natural digestive hormone called oxyntomodulin that is released in the small intestine, could help to stem the world's growing obesity epidemic.

'The discovery that oxyntomodulin can be effective in reducing weight could be an important step in tackling the rising levels of obesity in society,' said Professor Steve Bloom, who headed the research team."
