Vaping involves inhaling vapor produced by an electronic cigarette or any other vaping device. E-cigarettes are typically battery-powered and come with a cartridge that is filled with e-liquid. It is the liquid that is vaporized for the users to inhale. In most of the cases, e-liquid contains solvent, chemicals, flavorings, and nicotine. The nicotine levels in the e-liquids vary. This is to allow the vapers the freedom to choose what level of nicotine to consume. Some e-liquids have zero nicotine.

It is a common stereotype that smokers are slender and pale. This is true to some extent, and it begs the question, why are a significant portion of smokers slim? Well, the truth is that smokers will often skip meals. The reason for this is that their consumption of nicotine, at times at very high levels, suppresses their hunger and desire for food (appetite). It is also common to observe some weight gain among those who have quit smoking and improved appetite or more feelings of hunger.

Since vaping also involves the consumption of nicotine, as smoking does, it means that the nicotine suppresses appetite among vapers as it does among smokers. However, vaping avoids the inhaling of carbon monoxide, tar, and carcinogens, given that it does not involve any combustion of tobacco.

So, because they think it is an excellent way to avoid weight gain, those who smoke can still get the effect by vaping. That way, they will steer away from the carcinogens and issues that come with smoking. Those who are after their nicotine dose can also get it from vaping, which is a safer method of consumption.

For the source of e-liquid, vapers should buy from reliable vendors to get quality products. They can see this here where they will find the link to the website of one of the leading manufacturers of e-liquid and other vaping supplies.

Vaping and weight gain

So far, no substantial evidence has been found to show that vaping can help non-smokers lose weight. But for those who quit smoking, vaping can assist them in maintaining their weight. Some smokers decide to quit smoking by going cold-turnkey, thereby entirely doing away with any nicotine in their body. Such people may resort to eating more food than they usually consume, which could be a way to try to cope with the cravings for cigarettes (nicotine).

These ex-smokers who will start to eat a lot may end up adding some pounds depending on the amount of foods consumed and the frequency their workouts. Vaping would then come to help to maintain the ex-smoker’s weight since the nicotine in e-liquids would continue suppressing the appetite, and of course, in a less harmful way.

A better substitute for smoking

Ex-smokers crave sweetness and register increased weight after giving up the habit because each cigarette seems to supply the body with a teaspoon of sugar. So other than the addiction to nicotine, the smoker’s body has gotten used to sugar. To successfully make up for not smoking, vaping e-liquids with sweet flavors like grape or cola can help to satisfy both cravings for nicotine and sugar.

So, does vaping affect appetite? It is clear from the above discussion that it does, but only if it is vaping e-liquid containing nicotine. However, one should not take to vaping to control appetite because it has side-effects.
