“THE PATCH” — FOR FOOD

“THE PATCH” — FOR FOOD
For years, smokers looking to quit have used “the patch” to deliver small doses of their nicotine fix. Now the Army is working on a similar system — to give soldiers the nutrients they need during wartime.
Here’s how the Transdermal Nutrient Delivery System might work, its developers say: tiny physiological monitors would keep tabs on a soldier’s metabolism, and then send information on his nutritional needs to a processor. This processor would then trigger a microelectrical mechanical system that would transmit the micronutrients either through skin pores or pumped directly into blood capillaries — into the soldier’s body.
But don’t expect relief from those nasty-tasting rations any time soon. The Natick Soldier Center says it won’t be ready for another decade, at least.
