It should be safe, i bought the USP type from walmart. You can mix a couple of drops with your liquid but not too much. I added some to my cartomizer and it did make it smoother but after you are done vaping about an hour later you may get some film in the back of your mouth and last night I had trouble sleeping because all of my saliva was conglamorated. I drank lots of liquids and ate cough drops, but I guess the more you use, the more greasy it will feel.
If it says USP on it is safe.I'm sure the vets will jump in and help you out with your proportions.
The NOW is food grade, most likely. If it is USP it will state that, clearly. Although some people like it, I stick with USP grade, which has a guaranteed level of purity. (Food grade may not be bad, just that with USP there is more certainty).
In the bandaid section of a CVS or RiteAid there should be Glycerin USP skin protectant. It is a clear, short, 6 ounce bottle. The only ingredient will be glycerin 99.5%, possibly followed by the word "anhydrous". It costs about $5.
If you already have eliquids, then you would only be adding VG to thicken it slightly and make more vapor. i would add just a handful of %, then shake the bottle and test it. Any VG you add will cut the nicotine level and flavor. If you start with 24 mg/ml eliquid, add 10% VG (3 ml added to a 30ml bottle), then the result will be 22 mg/ml.
Ask at the pharmacy desk for an oral syringe. A lot of places will give out one or two free, otherwise they have them in the child care section, cheap. This makes it simpler to add a controlled amount of VG.

^ Thanks.... Yeah the bottle says 100% VG.... And says its a food product.... But theres no USP sticker... which scares the crap outta me.
