VG is very very thick.
Flavors and the nic juice (also vg based) thin it somewhat but a little extra thinner is usually required.
5% to 10% water or Ethanol, or a mix (like vodka) thin it and

Ta Da, no PG.

Works for some.

Some shops sell all VG juice, some thicker than other.

Hi guys,

Thanks for all the great replies. I chose to go 100% VG is for health reason as i read the VG liquids are abit healthier. Is that true still?

I don't think so. Some people are allergic to PG. Some, because it is plant based are allergic to VG. I think it's less than 10% are actually allergic. Some find either one an irritant. Some simply prefer one over the other.

Either one is an option. As far as healthier, I wouldn't say it has been found that one is healthier than the other. Just personal preference.

sinners,

yes maybe, maybe not :)

100% of one or the other just might be the biggest gamble. Unless of course you have a sensitivity to one or the other.
Some people have a real sensitivity to PG. 30%PG/70%VG usually eliminates that. Some are afraid of the "windshield film" from VG but most of that is condensation that collects other particles and collects on the windshield. Even a single fingerprint can be spread over most of a clean windshield (or camera lens).

I don't 'like' 100% of either. 70/30, 50/50, 30/70 or anything in between works for me.

The jury isn't in on which is healthier. Not yet. But vape what causes you the least concern. It's easier that way and will have a better chance of working on an individual level.

In theory, if you can believe everything the FDA says then both PG and VG are "safe" products. Dow Chemical would have you believe inhaling PG is practically better than air. Ultimately, I think if there was any serious danger we wouldn't be inhaling either because there would be a flood of vaping related deaths - and there aren't. We all would like to see more testing though.
