(WJBK) - Two Wayne St. University professors have the opportunity to get their dietary supplement in front of Hollywood stars at this weekend's 83rd Academy Awards.
Mirafit FBCx will be one of the swag bag items included inside the invitation-only Red Carpet Style Lounge prior to the ceremony.
Dr. Joseph Artiss and Dr. K-L Catherine Jen developed the supplement back in 2005. Made from corn fiber, it binds with the fat you eat, so it's eliminated before your body stores it.
In 2009, University of California researchers found the fat blocker zeroes in on unhealthy fat more than the healthier kind, eliminating up to 30-percent of calories and 60-percent of fat in food.
They also found it lowers cholesterol and blood insulin levels.
