Problems solved by technology

Non-drug treatment of obesity, such as increasing exercise and controlling diet, often has poor compliance, while weight loss drug treatment achieves the purpose of restricting energy intake and then losing weight by inhibiting appetite or intestinal lipid absorption. Long-term use will lead to depression and steatorrhea And other side effects, once the drug is stopped, there will be obvious weight rebound
