Researchers Build An Intra-Oral Magnet-Based Weight Loss Device

A group of researchers from the University of Otago and the UK has gone infamously viral for creating the world's first weight-loss device namely DentalSlim Diet Control. It is an intra-oral magnetic device that stops the user from eating solid food by constricting mouth opening to 2mm. The researchers said it does not restrict free speech and breathing and has an emergency release mechanism given a panic attack or choking.
