Viagra Can Make You Lose Weight

Viagra could be the solution for growing a burning brown fat.

The blue pill is not only good in the bedroom but it can also be a benefit pill for those who want to become slim.

Viagra is a solution for the elderly to have good performance in bed. Besides that, it can also promote weight-loss according to the researchers from China and Germany. A scientific test  was done on mice. The study concluded that viagra can change how the body uses fat. With it, the body converts fat to energy rather than storing it.

Viagra aids erectile dysfunction as it increases the blood flow in the penis and relaxes the muscles. The study also shows that the mice who took the medication (Viagra) are less likely to become obese. The researchers' test  in the University of Bonn in Germany backs up the said theory.

The scientists measured the effect of viagra on the fat cells of the mice that were given Viagra for seven days. The study showed that the white cells were converted into beige fat. Beige fat is like  rown fat which burns the energy from the food and converts it into heat.

The Chinese scientists conducted the said test on humans, a group of 20 who were given placebo pills three times a week while another gropu 20 men took Viagra at the same time span. After the said test,the effects will be measured by the scientists of China's Wuhan General Hospital.

The result for the mice trial experiment was published in the Journal of the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology. The study shows that "Viagra"  does help unhealthy burn and convert to energy.

Vast is the difference between white fat and the brown fat. White fat majority are found in adult fat content and it becomes stored fat due to the excess calorie ntake. Brown fat which is found more in babies, whose bodies are not fully developed and cannot properly regulate body temperature, converts to help the body by maintaining warmth. As the body ages, brown fat lessens and are normally stored around the neck and shoulder to maintain core temperature.

Scientists are still studying for how to stimulate growth of brown fats in adults.
