Nicotine is one hell of a fat burner

[npcout]

***i am not using nicotine for bodybuilding/dieting!!!!! I am strictly using it because I have treatment resistant Tourette disorder and am doing an experimental off label approach to complement my current therapy prescribed by my psychiatrist.

I am using a 7mg parch which is the lowest dose patch daily.


I am currently in contest prep and I have never in my life stripped fat off this easy and fast. The first week of using it, my heart rate was up and I felt on edge and a little uncomfortable but after the 1st week, I just feel normal.

I mentioned the fat loss to my doc, and he said that yes, with a good diet, it can def enhance fat loss but he would never suggest it for that purpose. I am currently doing this prep with very very minimal stimulants, and the results are just mind boggling.

I started it when bulking, I didn't change a thing and my diet which was holding my weight steady and gaining, I started loosing weight and fat even when bulking.

It's an appetite suppressant but I don't think it is an actual fat burner.

never smoked, i used the gum on a cut for a while. i had to start with the lowest dose, first time made me want to puke. worked my way up over time. the patch is probably stronger, but this seems like a stupid length to go for fat burning. if it really worked that well then everyone who quit smoking would be ripped huh? Lol

Nicotine enhances (stimulates) several different neurotransmitters that are involved with weight loss. Norepinephrine (conversion from dopamine) and Acetylcholine are two primary NT involved. Dopamine has a functional role as well.

Sorry, I stand corrected then. I didn't realize that.

Doesn't it work off the nicotinic receptors to increase HGH?

I always use it during prep. I've added it to topicals also like vasoburn.
Helps tremendously with appetite for me and the cinnamon tastes great.

Same here. First time I used nicotine patches for fat loss was probably 15 years ago... btw I made quite a few posts about it over the years.

On a side note, the older I get, the less I can't stand them patches... even a 7mg one cut in two now gives me BAD tachycardia...

Hell, so many things I can't do anymore health/heart wise I could in my 20's... seems like age is really taking its toll on me... I guess that's the way it's supposed to be...

Anything which makes you excited and more heartbeat makes you loss fat.

I don't get tachycardia from it, but I am on coreg for blood pressure, an alpha/beta blocker. My resting heart rate on nicotine is mid 60s. Only the first week was it up a bit.

It def does not decrease my appetite, if anything it has enhanced it or kept it the same, hard to tell. I plan to start 25mcg t3 soon as I am trying to avoid stimulants as much as possible this prep.

I actually was just reading about this last week. My wife and I vape, and use pretty low dose nicotine oils.

Considering bumping up the dose just to help with appetite and maybe keep a little fat from accumulating during lean bulk

I work with several fitness/bikini ladies and this is one of their tricks of the trade. Most I know though use the gum and not the patch. It will suppress appetite drastically in most.

DNP dipped ciggs.... Marketing genius.

Yes it does through nAChRs (nicotinic acetylcholine receptors). Which is all intertwined with ghrelin, cortisol, dopamine, etc. Nicotine also acts very similar to DNP through uncoupling of the mitochondria. Which in turn plays on upregulation of thermogensis of brown adipose tissue.

Never used it, but I am intrigued. What are possible sides from the patch or gum? I'd imagine it's relatively safe?

Addiction for one.

Addiction for one.

I guess if you are "prone" to that sort of thing. I was taking it on a cut, ended up using it twice daily for a little over 2 months and quit the day my cut was over and never looked back.

It's a vasoconstrictor though so not extremely helpful in the gym from a weight lifting standpoint.

It does it's job from an appetite suppressant standpoint, it is helpful with things like tren or DNP when you crave carbs. But the longer you take it, like anything else, the higher of a dose you will have to go to illicit the same response.

I would recommend anyone start as low as possible with the 1mg gum and work your way up from there. Never start with anything higher dosage or you'll be puking your guts out if you aren't a smoker already. As far as the PATCH goes though, I've never used it and it's a little MUCH for me - my girlfriend didn't notice the gum chewing but if all of a sudden I was wearing a nicotine patch I'm pretty sure it would raise some alarms about my sanity.
