Indeed, last time I checked some diet pills were around 278 calories each. Working with the logic that the pills came supplied with only that amount of value we'd all be looking at about nine pills per day just to stalk up on that requirement alone. Pure raw powdered down vitamins may not be the way to do at all at this rate. ...ehh that sounds... great/slightly horrible. I'll stick to the fudge cake flavored pill tho. Some really interesting concepts there. I'm quite intrigued by building this in-body ecology system. Just imagine sending your child to get their Vibrio Carbohydratum shots. I get the feeling we'd be waiting ten times longer for the 'ethics police' to clear it than for science to develop it. With the idea of clothing and bed sheets I have only one worry... what if it attracts bugs?

Good Day. My first post on this forum and from a preliminary check did not indicate this has been a discussion before. The development of diet pills of the last while has been orbiting around the idea of being a weight loss pill. Strip away appetite and give the body what it needs. Oddly enough in this day and age we haven't managed to get that right and they often have rather unpleasant side effects long term. So what about a full diet supplement? Forget about the weight loss side of things which appears to be just messing everything up. Surely we must understand the human body enough by now to be able to know what it's exact dietary requirements are. For the last few months I've been taking a vitamin supplement because I realized my diet isn't quite balanced enough. I'm not one to care for food. I like to make food fast, eat it fast and move on. So I've come to thinking; why not just get rid of food altogether? I know a lot of people wouldn't be overly keen on the idea, with meal time being important family time etc. but for someone like me who just wants to get on with things can this not be a reality? I realize the importance of keeping the digestive system active at all times so I would see the sense in having a supply of fruit/fiber every day. With the digestive track still moving and a system of quick snacks worked out can keep feelings of hunger out. Any thoughts on this? A series of tablets every day giving the perfect diet might seem like a vision of sci-fi future, but really I see no reason why our modern science techniques and knowledge can't be enough to work this out.

Good day. I am Sherlock, detective of science and hopeful future medicine student. I find pleasure in unwinding the mysteries of pseudoscience and the puzzles faced in medicine.
