Abstract: A heating system for an inhaler device, such as an e-cigarette or a personal vaporizer, for generating an aerosol and/or a vapor from a substance to be heated, especially a liquid or gel, the heating system including: a first heating zone configured to receive the substance to be heated from a supply reservoir, wherein at least one first heating element is provided to pre-heat the substance in the first heating zone; and a second heating zone configured to receive the preheated substance from the first heating zone, wherein at least one second heating element is provided to heat the substance in the second heating zone.

Abstract: A heating system for an inhaler device, such as an e-cigarette or a personal vaporizer, for generating an aerosol and/or a vapor from a substance to be heated includes at least one supply channel for conveying a substance to be heated, especially a liquid solution or a gel, from a supply reservoir by or under capillary action or surface tension forces, and a heater configured to heat the substance as it is conveyed through the at least one channel.

Abstract: This invention relates to a dietary supplement that is specifically designed for use in three categories of patient type; patients undergoing treatment with oral or topical forms of retinoids such as Isotretinoin, Tretinoin and Retinoic Acid; patients with medical conditions/treatments that are aggravated by the consumption of Vitamin A; individuals in the prenatal period wishing to avoid the consumption of Vitamin A in supplements. The dietary supplement is not limited by the inclusion of specific vitamins, minerals or other nutrients, but rather the exclusion specifically of Vitamin A and/or its precursors for the purpose outlined above.

Abstract: A vacuum raising apparatus for the production of an expanded foodstuff is disclosed, comprising a fluid permeable mould for constraining the foodstuff. The permeability of the mould is substantially uniform throughout so that during vacuum raising fluids from the foodstuff can escape uniformly through the entirety of the mould. The invention also provides a method of vacuum raising a foodstuff comprising constraining an unraised foodstuff within such a mould according to and subjecting the foodstuff within the mould to heat under vacuum.
