Pg, vg, peg?

[skydragon]

Hello,
I know there had been much written on these alternatives and I have read hundreds of pages but I still don't seem to really have an answer. There were two threads that were dealing with the breakdown of VG and PEG once vaped but those just seemed to stop months ago. So please bear with me it I have just not found the answers.

I think I am having a problem with PG. Not as severe as some but problems none the less. I also am not a big drinker of fluids (and probably never will be) so I do think it is dehydrating me as well as other things. I also understand that some symptoms are probably just withdrawal from the other chemicals in analogs. I am still smoking some by the way in order to stave off some of them.

Soooooo, just how bad is VG and PEG? I don't really want something that is going to be mutating my cells in a matter of months. I also already have sinus problems and have read that some people have more sever problems with at least VG. Is that common?

Any and all suggestions or comments on the pros and cons of VG and PEG would be welcome and appreciated.

If I decide to try either one of them, where are the best (as in purest ingrediants etc) places to buy?

Also, since it seems that there are a number of people with PG problems, why don't more of them use VG or PEG? Is it just because it is thicker and harder on the atomizers?

Thanks in advance.

Vegetable Glycol (usp food grade) is the way to go... you can get it at many craft stores such as Benjamin Franklin among others.. "Wiltons Brand Glycerin" They use it to make cake icing.. it is much thicker, puts off way more vapor, and is much safer than PG. Many people have allergic reactions to PG. You can get a bottle of VG and mix it with your PG if you don't want to waste it. I haven't had a problem with VG on my 510 atty's.

Why do you say it is "much safer" than PG? Because of the possible allergic reaction to PG? Really?

Maybe I should move this question to a different category since there don't seem to be many responses?
