NozNoz Overview
NozNoz is a weight management device designed to be inserted into the nostrils to help users resist the lure of food aromas, thereby curbing their appetite and promoting weight loss. NozNoz decreases the sense of smell while still allowing comfortable breathing through the nose. NozNoz is purely mechanical and does not contain any active ingredient or drug. After placement in the nose, the device is not visible from a front or profile view; it is slightly visible from beneath. NozNoz was developed by Beck Medical, a start-up company active in the fields of weight loss and nasal-based technology.
