Inhaling Food Flavorings was Killing me

[n2xe]

I switched to unflavored PG with a tad of VG a few weeks ago. I breath a whole lot better and this stuff cost less than dirt. Anybody else notice the same thing or is it just me??

I haven't had any issues with flavorings but if you can do without them that's the best case scenario. Should extend the life of your attys also. Glad it's working for you.

It's more likely that you are sensitive to PG, and that's why you feel better after increasing the VG. I don't really like the title of your post here because it's misleading wrt what you actually wrote. Yeah, leave the flavoring out if you are one of those sensitive types, but KILLING you? Cmon.

I'm really glad i looked at this post, I started vapping Bombay vaping juice which is a much higher pg to vg mix than i was used to and i feel like it effects my body much differently. I'll have to try straight pg, straight vg, pg with flavoring and vg with flavoring and take notes on how i feel.

I get terrific headaches vaping VG. I use 100% PG and no headaches. My doc said my throat and sinuses are allot better than they were.

They switched to PG and you switched to Vg and we are all happy! lol It is good we have both but the PG really has helped my breathing. The doc says my lungs sound normal now and before they sounded like a bagpipe so he says. I also believe the pg is what has kept me from getting a cold in 16 months. I vape 80-20 PG.

Some people have different allergic reactions....too bad you have to miss out on yummy flavors.

I have tried 50/50 VG, 70/30 VG and a few others but 80/20 Vg seems to work the best for me.

The flavorings are the one area that is totally not investigated in these things. We know about diacetyls in some buttery flavors but, I know there are toxins in clove and nutmeg. You'd have to eat a lot to cause a problem but, I don't know about inhalation. There are bound to be others and that's not to mention allergic reactions. I would really like to see more attention paid in this area.

I agree I'd like to see more attention paid to the flavorings but to say they were killing u just draws attention from the unwanted aka big baccy
