‘Exercise pill’

‘Exercise pill’ switches on gene that tells cells to burn fat « Biosingularity

This is hilarious (and exciting). No doubt chunky people like me are waiting for stuff like this to hit the market, no, arrive in our mailboxes (because we’re lazy right) so that we can just sit on our bottoms and lose weight. I wonder what side effects this could produce… and if they can simply “switch on” and hopefully “switch off” (when you’re done losing weight). Permanently changing the genetic makeup of a newly born is cool, I’m curious how it could work as a tablet.
