New Pill Replicates Exercise and Strengthens Muscle

  • I think there needs to be a movement to not allow click-bait websites to interpret scientific studies for the public.

    Even just the use of the word "pill" in the title to reference a novel drug discovery is a big red flag of media quality.

  • Whoa. This is almost unbelievable. This smacks of a Capt. America like drug. Article claims "no side effects" and the "system" they used to discover this compound sure sounds like AI.

    "Researchers from Tokyo Medical and Dental University (TMDU) used a novel drug screening system in a recent study that was published in the journal Bone Research to identify a compound that replicates the changes in muscle and bone that arise from exercise."

    Also, this sounds like a possible cure for Boneitis for that 80s guy from Futurama.

  • Clickbait. It's better to share stuff like this on Facebook.
