Default Shrink Waistline Without Changing Lifestyle

A new device called VBLOC has been designed to lose weight or reduce the waistline. It is a type of receiver, which is worn by patients like belt that transmits electronic impulses. These impulses block the signals traveling from stomach to brain via vagus nerve. This nerve conducts impulses for hunger. Thus, blocking these signals results in less hunger or no hunger due to which the patient eats less. This device does not impose any dietary restrictions or change in lifestyle. About 5000 hertz of electricity is flown through the neuroregulator and down two laproscopically inserted electrical leads onto the vagus nerve, which depolarizes the vagus nerve, thereby hindering the communication between brain and stomach.

This device has been on the market under a different patent brand for a longtime; however, it does not really reduce weight as it claims to do.

Oh too bad. I can see a lot of product like that on the cable. I think its from china or japan the testimonies from other costumers are so good that you can be tempted to buy one.

I've seen this one, and I wish it were that easy. It's hard to determine what to trust and what not at times. I took one look at this and knew, exercising would work much better. It's really sad that so many people want to lose weight and look "perfect" because of the media. I really look up to those who have the willpower to work out and stay healthy, because it's not easy

I think it's pretty sad that people run for everything that they see come out on TV. The people who sell those products prey on the gullibility of these people and make millions every year. Especially the exercising devices, they have a new and ''improved'' (!) one almost every month and they are more and more expensive. If any of them worked, the gyms would go out of business, which is exactly the opposite. Makes you wonder why people insist on throwing their money out of the window to buy those things...
