Hi guys, I see there's many people asking about vaping and bloating. However, I have yet to come across anything recent or specific.
Bare with me and my thoughts here.
So I just started vaping again... Bought a quick kit just to get me started (MELO 3 Nano Tank). Got a juice that I used to love (I vaped about 3+ years ago) which is The Upside by The Schwartz (strawberry yogurt) (0 Nicotine, 70VG 30PG)
I noticed after my first day of vaping that I was very bloated which was causing a deal of discomfort. It goes away if I don't vape for a few hours, but comes back with literally just a couple inhales from the vape. Over the past few years, I've developed a fairly sensitive stomach.
Question 1: Does this give any clue to what the problem could be? I wouldn't think you could feel pain so quickly from just a couple puffs from the vape if the issue is "swallowing air." (and I'm not doing anything different from a basic lung inhale)
I've read that PG could be the reason, as well as flavorings. VG hasn't really come up as causing bloating specifically.
Question 2: If I did have to switch to a Max VG juice, any recommends? ALSO the big part of this for me... How the heck can I vape Max VG in a sub ohm tank? I THINK my coil building days are over, it was good when I had TIME on my hands.
Question 3: If it's the flavorings, is there such thing as an unflavored juice that isn't horrid? Or flavorings that are more on the safe side? Examples?
I really want to continue to vape, and to think I might have to just stop, kinda breaks my heart! This is unacceptable....
If ANYONE has found out any ways to assist this for themselves, please let me know!
P.S.: I have been drinking Fennel and Peppermint Tea, with no luck. It can't overpower whatever is causing the pain / bloating in the first place.
I'm curious if anyone has had this experience and it went away with time when my body adjusted kinda thing?
