Personally I don't use anything, but you could always use a couple drops of your juice on the tank threads. The VG in your juice would act as a lubricant, not much though as you don't want to get it all over the 510 connection. Also don't screw on your tanks too tight, snug is fine.
I don't put any kind of lubrication or noalox on my threads as I believe it promotes the build up of dirt and grime. That being said, I believe that atomizers get stuck on mods not in the threads but because the bottom of the atomizer is screwed on too tightly to the mod's top cap. One good trick that I sometimes use is to put a dab of Vasoline on the top cap of my mod or bottom of the atomizer as it helps to prevent binding.
Pure bees wax type lip balms have solved this issue for me. Just a little bit keeps everything moving freely, is non toxic and doesn't attract too much dirt.
You shouldn't have to apply any lubricant to 510 threading. What you can do is keep it clean and polished. I like to use polishing cloths for the threading. Cape Cod cloths are pretty popular, but are scented if that bothers you. I use one that is marketed toward vape gear, although I hear it's pretty much the same thing.
Thanks for all the great responses. Chap stick seems to help and I had some handy.
