Introduction
The relationship between nicotine and weight loss is a complex and controversial topic. Some studies have suggested that nicotine may suppress appetite and increase metabolism, leading to weight loss. However, other studies have shown that nicotine may have no effect on weight or even lead to weight gain.
Does Nicotine Suppress Appetite?
Some evidence suggests that nicotine may act as an appetite suppressant. According to a study published in the journal "Nicotine and Tobacco Research," smokers who used nicotine patches consumed significantly fewer calories than non-smokers.

Does Nicotine Increase Metabolism?
Nicotine may also increase metabolism, which can lead to weight loss. A study published in the journal "Obesity" found that smokers had a higher resting metabolic rate (RMR) than non-smokers.
