Now EVERYONE Will Be Rushing to Buy a New

...vibrator.

...And no wonder, other scientists say. Dr. Rubin, director of the Center for Biotechnology at the State University of New York at Stony Brook, is reporting that in mice, a simple treatment that does not involve drugs appears to be directing cells to turn into bone instead of fat.

All he does is put mice on a platform that buzzes at such a low frequency that some people cannot even feel it. The mice stand there for 15 minutes a day, five days a week. Afterward, they have 27 percent less fat than mice that did not stand on the platform — and correspondingly more bone.



You don't even have to shake that thang anymore. It does it for you. And I'm sure it plugs into the wall, so no more environmentally unfriendly batteries.
