( Tanida, 2005 ) Grapefruit Essential Oil And Weight Loss You’ll often see Grapefruit Essential Oil referred to as “ The Dieter’s Oil”  because it has long been recognized that grapefruit helps with weight loss. Now, exciting new research has uncovered the fact that the fragrance of Grapefruit Essential Oil controls how our bodies deal with fat. The aroma goes to the brain, then signals are sent down through the nerves that go to the stomach,  to the actual fat itself. So messages to the nervous system instruct the fat how to perform. This is an extremely complex action. To understand it, we need to begin by investigating adipose tissue. What is Adipose Tissue? Adipose tissue, or body fat, as we mostly recognize it, is a connective tissue found right through your body. It lives beneath your skin. We call most of it subcutaneous fat. There is also another group, visceral fat , that sits between your internal organs. Finally, adipose tissue is also found in bone marrow. It had previously been understood that body fat insulates our body against heat and cold, as well as stores and releases energy. Turns out, that was only part of the story. Then, in the 1980s, scientists discovered a hormone connected to weight called leptin. Leptin signals to the body to say whether you are full or not. From that,  scientists revealed that adipose tissue makes leptin. This turned the understanding of fat on its head. If fat can make hormones, then it’s not just an inanimate entity. Adipose tissue must be an endocrine gland. Adipose tissue is an organ in its own right. Adipose tissue contains nerve cells and blood vessels that communicate with other organs throughout your body by signaling with hormones. Body Fat Serves Many Important Functions Stores and releases energy. Regulates glucose and cortisol. Maintains the body’s sensitivity to insulin. Regulates temperature and protects our organs against heat and cold. Ge
