Researchers have developed an ingestible capsule called FLASH that can electronically stimulate the hunger-regulating hormone ghrelin in pigs, offering a potential treatment for gastrointestinal, neuropsychiatric, and metabolic disorders. The capsule emits electronic signals and moves through the body, eventually being excreted. The team plans to continue researching for human application and explore treatment options for eating disorders and metabolic diseases.
