Default nicotine patch

I just received Trainer Dan's book, and in it he discusses using the nicotine patch as a way to increase fat loss.

Has anyone tried this?

Me.

I know a few other people who frequent the CKD forum have too.

It is kind of a "grey" area topic, so you may not get many responses.

My only advice is to use the lowest dose patch you can find. I actually went and bought the 11mg ones, then cut them in half and used half a patch a day.

The 7.5mg patches got me overstimulated about 8 hours into the patch.

As it says in the book, this is something that you need to be careful with. I included it in there since it is a "dirty trick" that had been used.

And before I get flamed, I know and support all of the addictive property issues that come with nicotine use. I don't actually condone it, but it DOES work.

Be sure to crank up your antioxidant levels too, especially vitamin C.

If you have any other questions on nicotine patch use, you are more than welcome to e-mail me at trainerdan~quadrafit.com
