Does any one have any sidefects from vaping VG? I seem to be perfectly fine vaping 100% PG but any amount of VG over 10% I get a sticky substance in my throat that I cant get out and its like I just took a whole box of laxitives.
I have tested this several times just to be sure but I have not read anything about VG at all just PG allergies it seems:blink:.
Am I all alone with these issues?

I have no idea about the laxatives thing, but I don't think you are alone.

The throat issue, I am familiar with. The best way you can deter that symptom is by drinking more water. VG will dry out your throat.

I hope you find the answers you need!

i wont ever have to worry about 100% VG or its side effects. unless of course i stop loving TH. i cant for the life of me figure out how anybody gets any sort of a semblance of a TH out of 100%VG. i do however envy you if you can. it would be worth it for Boba alone. oh well.

I use 100% VG at 36mg nicotine, thats how I get TH....

You know, I seemed to be wondering about that myself, but I haven't done enough on one over the other to determine which it is. I pretty much vaped 100% VG all weekend and did, well, have to visit the bathroom a few times. That's okay though...it save me having to take something for the opposite problem. All natural remedy. :)

The throat clearing seems to increase too. I like to mix it at around 50/50 and that helps, but the flavors I really like seem to be only in VG. I don't understand that, but nonetheless...

Remember when you smoked cigarettes, if you switched to a different brand, it would take a few days to get used to it, then your old brand would taste bad? That's exactly what happens when you switch to VG...within a day or two, you're used to it, then everything else seems overly harsh...

I've become so spoiled by the clouds of thick vapor I get from VG, that it's very hard for me to enjoy PG (of course, for many including myself, going all-VG is less of a choice, and more of a required solution to an allergy to PG).

Well I have been mixing my own juice and over the last 2 weeks I have tested various amounts of VG in my test juices and it seems I can't tolerate anything over 10% in my juice. Thankfully I have no issues with 100% PG. I do drink a lot of water and iced tea so I cant see more water helping me. I will stick with 100% PG I guess glad to know that I am not alone and that others have had similar issues.
