Hi, In my country there is almost no vg that doesn't include Palm Oil. The others are very expensive. Is Palm Oil really dangerous?
Just remember, you're not vaping the oil, you're vaping the vegetable glycerin that is separated from the oil via saponification:
IIRC, vegetable glycerin is commonly derived from vegetable oil. You know how in Fight Club, they make soap from human fat and lye? Replace the human fat with vegetable fat, and that’s how vegetable glycerin is made. If animal fat is used, it’s just called glycerin (or glycerol). Vegetable oil is essentially glycerin plus salts in solution. When an alkaline (typically lye) is added to the solution, it separates the salts from the fats. The salts become soap, and the fats become glycerin.
Welcome and glad you joined. Dangerous, good question. I do not know.Hi, In my country there is almost no vg that doesn't include Palm Oil. The others are very expensive. Is Palm Oil really dangerous?
What about olive oil?
Vaping any oils at all is extremely bad for your health and will burn your mouth, throat and lungs..What about olive oil?
I meant Vg which is obtained from olive oil.Vaping any oils at all is extremely bad for your health and will burn your mouth, throat and lungs..
Ejuice is made up of water soluble ingredients..
DO NOT VAPE ANY TYPE OF OIL.
I'm saying that, VG which is obtained from Olive oil is safer than VG which is obtained from Palm oil or not?DO NOT VAPE OIL.
It can cause pulmonary edema which is fatal if left untreated. Vegetable glycerine is produced from vegetable oil, and as long as it does not state that there is oil added to the VG to increase volume, it is safe. (better to not throw caution to the wind and buy pure organic VG)
Glycerin is Glycerin... As long as it's 100% v/v it's vapable, I've vaped glycerin derived from animal fats and didn't have any issues, it's really a question of ethics at that point...I meant Vg which is obtained from olive oil.
Yeap that's what most of the industry uses...It has a minimum purity of 99.7%. Pharma grade. Is it safe to vape? Should I be worried?
