Over time, fat loss stalls as the stomach stretches to make more room, or individuals who eat for emotional reasons learn to keep consuming long after they feel full. While the increasing and decreasing of a balloons volume is not necessarily a new concept, this procedure currently requires surgery. The new OSIRIS balloon has been trialled in pigs, and is adjustable using a small pump that could be used as a wearable device.<\/p>\n<h3>What are the benefits of OSIRUS?<\/h3>\n<p>Scientists trialling the adjustable gastric ballon found that increasing the balloon size prior to mealtimes saw a 60% reduction in food intake, making it a very promising tool for future <a href=\"https:\/\/www.muscleandfitness.com\/nutrition\/lose-fat\/13-best-foods-lose-weight-feel-full\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">weight management options<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe current study has successfully demonstrated the effectiveness of the OSIRIS in altering feeding behavior and significantly reducing food intake,\u201d read the potentially life-changing report. \u201cWhich is a promising step toward developing an effective treatment for obesity.\u201d The experts now hope to investigate the effects that an adjustable gastric balloon can have on longer term eating and weight loss patterns, but the fact that these new devices do not require surgery for size changes is already an encouraging start. \u201cThe OSIRIS represents an exciting advancement in the field, and its potential to outperform static stimulation in avoiding gastric accommodation makes it a worthy subject for continued investigation.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.muscleandfitness.com\/features\/feature-news\/adjustable-gastric-balloon-promises-new-hope-in-weight-loss\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gastric balloons have been used with varying levels of success since the late \u201970s, but much like other devices that aim at reducing eating capacity, they often fail to beat the battle of the bulge once our stomach\u2019s stretch to compensate.
