Yes, and with 10-15% reduction in food intake the fat mouse lost weight.

The fact that we do not all handle food intake in the same way doesn't mean it's not a lifestyle issue, not everyone has to eat the same. Some people are more efficient, good for them, now they can eat less. And I say that as a fatty myself (from overeating, no magic here).

Let's not try to frame that is if it were a good thing. In parts of the world that are overflowing with so much delicious food, almost everyone would like to be able to eat more of it without getting fat. The inefficient people are the fortunate ones.

Fortunate how? I would prefer to have a more efficient digestive system so that I didn't have to eat so much.

I'd love that if it came with a corresponding decrease in appetite, but alas.

There are plenty of people who do use cocaine regularly, and a lot of them are celebrities.

And how many people have died due to the cardiotoxicity?

I think you may have missed the point I was making. Just because people like something doesn't mean it is beneficial or it should be done regularly
