“Love Hormone” Could Help Men Lose Weight

“Love Hormone” Could Help Men Lose Weight

So this new study says anyways.

The small study – which really shows some promise – show that the so called “love hormone” which is released during sex and cuddling may actually help some men lose weight.

Men who used a synthetic oxytocin nasal spray consumed less calories than those who didn’t use the spray.

Dr. Elizabeth Lawson, one of the doctors involved, in the study said “the results are very exciting” and continued to say “[f]urther study is needed, but I think oxytocin is a promising treatment for obesity and its metabolic complications.”

Only 25 males participated in the study – but as the good doctor  mentioned, the results so some promise.

Ladies, we haven’t forgotten about you.

The next stage of the study will see women tested with the same theories. The NY Daily News has a little more on the story for you.
