If I have bad allergies should I try 100 VG. If so does that decrease vapor production. I read to try no PG for allergies. Is there still a throat hit. Because I like both. Thanks.

do you have a reaction to vaping or do you have bad allergies in general? i am very allergic to mold and certain pollens but i am not allergic to vaping. i do prefer a higher VG mix than standard for more vapor and a little less throat hit.

If you're going to dilute the eliquid by 10%, it's going to reduce the nicotine content by 10%- also the flavoring. It may or may not be an issue. Some suppliers that sell 100% VG already dilute it so it's vapable.

Approx. 10% of people are allergic to VG or to PG. Some have a sensitivity to one or the other. I personally can't vape high VG- it feels like I have a rock sitting on my chest. You just need to try some small sample sizes and see what works best for you.

I have bad allergies in general. But it seems like it's been worse since I started vaping 4 months ago. I'm not even sure if I need 100 VG but I figure I would try it since many people on here say they had good results from switching to 100 VG. So I figured I would try it. Of course some people say it's better anyway.

What he said, as far as allergies. I'm allergic to half the world, and have had no issues with PG. Which is good, since I don't like the sweetness of VG. The best idea would be to try a small amount and see if it does make a difference for you. Some people report VG causing problems as well.
