Gastric Botulin Toxin A for Weight Loss

In attempts to help people lose weight, researchers have tested ways to slow gastric emptying (movement of food from the stomach to the small intestine) and increase satiation (feeling full). Gastric injections of Botox have been reported to delay gastric emptying, increase satiation, and reduce body weight (Elshakh H, El-Ejji K, Taheri S. The role of endoscopic intra gastric Botulin Toxin A for obesity treatment. Obes Surg 2017Sep; 27(9): 2471-2478).
