questioons about e juice

[stressedOUT]

So I read that the pg juice can give you headaches, well I've been getting them. So I'm wondering the differences between pg and vg. So I get the headaches and dry mouth that's almost impossible to get rid of. Is this caused. By the juice? Does pg help all these issues? Recently got the ego and sooooo happy with it! But now need to learn more about the juice. What does everyone prefer and good sites to get it from? I did order a few sample bottles from vaporbomb that I'm waiting for that are a mix of 80%pg 20%vg and 50/50. Is the vg more difficult to use or clean up after? Any tips or suggestions would be well appreciated!

I can't be of much help because PG and VG really only taste different to me, as far as the amount of flavor i taste. I have never had any adverse effects from them. I just know I like the 100% vg better.

The VG tends to be a smoother vape. I can't speak for myself, but those that like a throat hit have a little more trouble getting it with an all VG juice. It is also said that it does not hold the flavors as well as the PG does. The VG is a good bit thicker than the PG is and it can be problematic with wicking, which is why it is usually diluted with either pure grain alcohol/PGA or a bit of distilled water. As the other poster noted, though, VG will create massive clouds. Right now I am finishing up some 50/50 PG/VG juice I have mixed up and am then getting ready to go the all VG route myself.

I'm not at all familiar with getting headaches with the nic juice, unless maybe you're vaping at too high of a nic content? Also, it would be helpful for you to state what PG/VG ratio you ARE using that is causing you to get the headaches and then maybe someone who has experienced this problem can help. There are many side effects to both the VG and PG that some people just can't tolerate. I am guessing that the headaches though would be too much nic
You're asking what we prefer- I get my juice from freedomsmokeusa and most of the ones I prefer are the PG/VG specialties and are 50/50- if you go to their page- you can see on the left side where it says PG/VG specialties. I order most of mine in this category
Good luck and happy vaping!!! PS- drink LOTS of water so you don't get dehydrated from vaping. I drink at least 2 bottles of green tea a day. Coke and diet coke don't count lol

I do need to drink more water, even before I started vaping. But who can really get 8 8oz glasses a day in?? So right now I'm vaping the juice that came with my first really bad kit, the firelight. Of course didn't do my research and jumped right in after tryin my in laws. The juice is 100% pg at a 16mg nic strength, and I smoked about a pack and a half a day of marlboro menthols, so I don't think its the nic strength. They aren't really bad headaches, more of an annoying cloud like pressure. A couple asprin take it away. Does the dry mouth get better with vg? I do like the throat hit but I can definitly deal with it being a little less harsh. I. So badly want to order so many different juices in different ratios, strengths, and from do many different places that are so highly talked about! But of course I can not do this because I just don't have the hundreds of dollars I would end up putting out due to my shopping problem..hehe! I need to make a list of everyones favs so I can eventually try them all! I haven't done any flavors yet, just the tobacos. At first didn't think I would ever try some of these flavors out there but now I am so curious. Just sounds weird to vape apple or strawberry, which are very normal compared to others! I hope someone can shed some light for me who has had this headache problem. And get a lot of peoples fav vapes!

You could be getting the headache from getting too dehydrated.
Both PG and VG are humectants, and will dehydrate you, so you MUST drink more fluids when vaping.

And yeah, it also could be from too much nicotine.
But you would likely also feel a little queasy to go along with it.

Also, a few people have some degree of PG alergy.
Not sure if that could cause a headache or not though.

Your probably right! I can't believe I didn't think of it! Its from not drinking enough. I've gotten dehydrated before due to a stomach illneess, not to long ago either, but I remember having bad headaches! Its not nearly that bad right now. But I guess its time to drink up! Thanks a bunch everyone! But still can't wait to try out some of that vg!

Headaches seem to be a fairly common withdrawal symptom from smoking. One of my friends had headaches for a couple of weeks. He's vaping full time now and they're gone. Smoking puts many undesirable chemicals in your system and sometimes your body fights back a little when you take them away. Do drink plenty of liquids though, just in case dehydration might be the culprit.

Now that i think about it. I used to get headaches when i smoked and now I don't, so for me, i would say the cutting of the analogs helped me instead of hurt like it might have you.

Thank you so much! I drank a lot of water last night and this morning while vaping (puff- sip, puff- sip, puff- sip) and no annoying headaches! So I think I found the culprit. But as far as juices go, what are your favs and from where? I can't imagine vaping green apple or cheesecake or anything but tobacco flavors, but that's gotta be because I just quit analogs and that's the only taste that I've ever inhaled! But I must give them a try! I do have hypnotic, cinnabomb, and coffee on its way from vaporbomb since the first 2 are the most raved about that I've read, and i simply just love coffee, but I want more input. So please tell me your all day vapes and "getaway" vapes and wether vg or pg or what mix, I would greatly appreciate it!

Thank you so much!

Glad I could help, headaches suck.
I used to get dehydrated all the time when I was a kid.
