That’s my understanding of these tablets, that the bit they hope will work is the delivery method. They want the oils contained in the capsule to be distributed in the colon, not digested in the stomach. That’s because there have been previous studies where these oils have been directly introduced into the colon and shown to produce satiety effects similar to those that are produced naturally or mimicked by Mounjaro/Wegovy etc.
The patent talks about proposed research trials, rather than completed ones. They haven’t published their results anywhere as yet, which means they are simply claims at the moment. The claim is that people who took these tablets reduced the amount they ate by 13 or 18% - I’ve seen both figures mentioned (without any reference of course). Which is interesting, but may not reduce an over eater’s calories enough to produce actual weight loss.
