A tiny capsule containing heat-generating cells has been developed and researchers claim that the cells can burn excessive abdominal fat.

The heat-generating cells in the capsule led to conversion of abdominal fat cells into thermogenic cells that are responsible for heat generation in the body.[Read: Make the Moves for A Flat Stomach]

To develop the capsule, the scientists had combined the heat-generating cells or thermogenic cells with engineered cells sans the enzyme responsible for accumulation of visceral fat.
The study was published in the journal ‘Biomaterials’.
