Welcome to the secretive world of human poo trials.
For the first time in human history, children are facing shorter lives than their parents. The reason? Obesity – it’s a killer epidemic that destroys millions of lives each year.
There isn’t a single country that’s been able to reduce its obesity rates . . . and unfortunately Kiwis are heavier than most. If the trend continues, we’ll see nearly half the world’s population as clinically overweight or obese in just 12 years time.

But what if there was a silver bullet solution? Well, a team of New Zealand scientists may have found one. Amazingly, it’s all natural – but the solution is not for the faint hearted, or the weak-stomached.
