U.S. researchers have developed a skin patch that can melt fat in mice, and future tests will reveal whether it could treat obesity and diabetes in people, a study said Friday.
The patch uses nanotechnology to raise the body's metabolism and transform energy-storing white fat into energy-burning brown fat, according to the report in ACS Nano, a publication of the American Chemical Society.
After four weeks, mice saw a 20 per cent reduction in body fat where the patch was applied.

Have you ever noticed it's the mice who receive all the benefits; cancer, fat, diets, kidneys, etc. I never see results with humans.
