5 Myths About Vaping For Weight Loss
Submitted by Marcia on Fri, 02/08/2019 - 02:02Vaping has been a solution for various problems. Whether adults turn to vaping to quit smoking or for recreational activities, some have tried vaping to lose weight. In fact, a recent study by Reuters suggests that vaping could help weight loss for smoking quitters. Of course, the best way to lose weight is through a healthy diet and exercise. However, if you are addicted to nicotine, it can be difficult to lose weight while quitting. In this post, we’ll explain the myths about vaping for weight loss.
Vaping Is An Appetite Suppressant
Vaping alone does not suppress your appetite. The nicotine inhaled acts as a stimulant that could speed up your metabolism. When you are vaping without nicotine, it’s uncertain if vaping actually contributes to weight loss. For smokers to quit smoking without packing on the pounds, vaping could be an appetite suppressant if you are using e-juice or e-liquid that contains nicotine. You can carefully control your nicotine intake to quit smoking without the associated weight gain due to an increased appetite. Still, vaping on its own does not act as an appetite suppressant.

Best Way to Remove Adipose Tissue from Your Body
Submitted by Marcia on Thu, 12/07/2017 - 11:48Adipose tissue, also called body fat, is an important component to our body’s health and wellbeing. While another name for it is body fat, adipose tissue is made up of more than fat. You can find many blood vessels and nerve cells running all along your adipose tissue.
Where is adipose tissue?
Your body has adipose tissue all over, and it helps you by storing and then releasing fuel to your entire body. It also releases hormones to your body at just the right times when you need them the most.
Men and women store their body fat in different areas of their bodies. Men tend to store body fat around their middle, while women have it more in their thighs and buttocks. How they can properly remove any excess body fat will differ because of this.
Is too much adipose tissue bad?
If you have too much adipose tissue or even too little, it can be harmful to your health. If you have too much it can lead to obesity, which comes with its own set of problems and challenges. If you don’t have enough, then your vital organs won’t have enough fat cells surrounding them for proper protection.
