    The main thing it apparently does for people is to stop them thinking about food all the time. (This is where you get the people who don't eat and drink enough so end up suffering the side effects.)

    It's good to know that, no matter how fecked up modern life becomes, we can rely on science for a quick fix.

    Most of the side effects are due to people who are on it who either don't change their eating habits or stop eating.
