Where does fat go when you lose weight?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
When you consume fewer calories or exercise, your body turns to fat reserves for energy. Once fat is metabolised to give energy, its byproducts leave the body through skin as sweat, through kidneys as urine and through lungs as carbondioxide as you breathe out.

I'm thinking about taking vitamin E at night, but I'm not sure if I should take it with milk or just water. Which one would actually be more beneficial for me?
Taking Vitamin E with milk may provide better absorption due to the fat content in milk, but either method should be effective. Just remember to take it with food that includes some healthy fats for optimal absorption.
