    What would be the less harmful?

    I envy people that can smoke a couple here and there, without getting hooked... it seems that everytime I have stopped and started again, its always been one of those eh, I will just have this one... Everything in moderation I suppose. I cant see a smoke here and there being all that...

    propylene glycol, and glycerine...... see this, if you havent already.

    Mister, great insight... Im not overly worried of inhalation of PG, however for some reason it doesnt seem to agree with me (at least in cartomizers. havent tried using it in traditional e-cigs) The extreme thirst and canker sores made it not that enjoyable, none if which I expierence with...

    lung questions (non-vaping related)

    sounds like you gots a very sensitive nose, and can pickup on some things...I know with people who drink alot, they have a certain "smell" to their breaths, more so than somone who went out on a bender the night before. I knew a few alcoholics growin up and can smell one out usually...

    propylene glycol, and glycerine...... see this, if you havent already.

    Well, I upped my water intake from the day I quit anologs. I turned to vaping 1.5 months after stopping smoking, from mild curiosity of it all. (with 0mg NIC of course). Everytime I've gone back to smoking, its always been hangin arround people that still smoke and eventually I always cave...

    Lorikay13, havent talked to my DR yet personally about the device. I showed my chiropractor cause he noticed I didnt smell like smoke anymore. He was more like well you quit, so why bother with that now? A colleuge at work showed her DR her device and gave him a demo. She is an older lady...

    My Lungs, My Liver, My Life

    That is truly an amazing thing to read. I hope your health continues to improve! It never ceases to amaze me, just how much your body goes through while smoking and all the good things that all of a sudden happen when you finally but out (or in this case switch to vape). Example, I know...

    Finding this difficult to believe...

    I've wondered about VG/ heart. Only since most VG's seem to be coconut based, I wondered if this would contribute to higher BP or even chloesterol. I'm borderline hypertension, well actually right on the nose I fluctuate, up to 140/90. This was one of the reasons I quit anologs. I think my...

    cartomizers vs cartrdiges

    Ok so maybe Im paranoid, arent we all :oops: There have been a few times where I screw on a cartomizer and I'm puffing away and I swear I smell something burning. Then I start to think of those threads a while back about all the filling in the cartos getting burnt up...not really want to be...

    Ecig on "the doctors"

    I dunno, that second video seems kinda late night tv-ish, with a side of Tom Vu. I can dress up in a white smock with a shirt and Tie with a stethiscope too and tell you all bout vaping...hard to tell if he is legit is what Im really saying. the Doctors TV show, thats a bit different.

    Waking up earlier

    Could be DST, but this aslo could be his body reacting to the lack of anologs. Cigarettes, screw a lot of things up in your body. So what you are probably experieincing is more energy from not smoking! You body requires lest rest to feel energized. Aslo, I have sleep apnea. I never use my...

    propylene glycol, and glycerine...... see this, if you havent already.

    I posted this in another section of the forum. But I would like to see people go to their DR's about this, hear me out: You take a PG'er and a VG'er and have them go to their perspective DR's. Get some basic blood work done, maybe even chest x-rays. Go back 6 months later and get the same...

    Don't start vaping if you're a non-smoker!

    im vaping Zero after sucessfully quitting smoking....more of habitual thing... I will say that a hooka/water pipe smoker at my work here ordered an e-cig when he heard about the flavors...from what I can tell he doesnt inhale, but I could be wrong..

    Foamy or bubbly urine....... who has it after ecigs??

    I think people need to talk to their DR's more. I dunno there are some pills out there that can screw you up. One comes to mind, Lamsyl to treat nail fungus. I know somoene who had a case of that and was perscribed that. he had to go for a few blood tests during the treatment to ensure his...
