Does e-liquid have any calories or sugars? I don't even know if calories and that sort of thing exist in vapor form. Anyone have any thoughts?
Wierd question that popped in my head today...

Hi Trenton06, No e-liquid does not have sugar or calories. It sure may taste like it though as some are very sweet!
E-juices use artificial sweeteners, not sugar which would ruin an atty or carto asap. As far as calories present, I'm sure there's a few in there and if you drank your juices you'd have some caloric intake, but you wouldn't likely get any of them in your system through inhalation.
Hi Trento...Funny you started this thread, I have a similar query to this, guys have you noticed an increase in your weight, since you quit smoking..I have put on a few pounds it seems in the last three months since I quit. Not sure if it's from the calories we are getting from the juices or that my appetite has increased, as smoking is known to kill appetite....could it also be ECF addiction keeping me hooked to my desk
i have noticed the exact opposite. vaping curbs my appetite much more than smoking ever did.

I think people are more susceptible to gain weight after they stop smoking cogarettes. Not sure why. I know my grandfather gained a lot of weight after he quit many years ago.
Kemosabe, I too find that certain flavors curb my appetite. I've lost a few pounds because I vape a flavor (like choc) and don't go reaching for a candy bar or whatever.
Interesting topic.

Gotta stick something in your face.
I just ate six Kryspy Kreme donuts at a farewell party here at work. I blame cigarettes.
Although I have heard people say that they could smell food and gain weight, I don't think that applies to vaping.
Seriously, sugar would be the death of an atty as it caramelized on the coil. There's not much in ejuice that equates to caloric content. PG and VG might have caloric content that is released when you consume them in foods such as salad dressings. Nicotine probably doesn't contribute at all. Flavorings are not significant in calorie content.

Not sure about other flavorings but TPA caramel & graham cracker do contain corn syrup. I know that many vendors do use TPA flavorings. I doubt you're getting calories from it, though.
From what Ive always heard and learned , its the nicotine that curbs the appetite, as does caffeine and most stimulants. Maybe you need more nic in your first few months, or the fact that now you puff less and your hands need something to play with. I have actually lost 10 lbs. Now that I dont have to go outside to smoke, I can vape when I get that anxious feeling. Plus now that your taste buds are coming back you are craving something to taste. Just my two cents.
the reason why ex-smokers gain weight comes from a combination of things. first, you have the lack of nicotine. nicotine is a stimulant. it not only speeds up the body, but it surpresses appetite. then youve got the lack of hand-to-mouth. the ex-smoker replaces that with food. and finally, you have the increased taste stemming from the lack of tar on the tongue dulling the taste buds. so food is not only satisfying the hand-to-mouth tendancy, its also tasting much better. further, you dont have that stimulant to curb appetite, or help you burn the food off.
I'm actually losing weight. I vape a lot of sweet stuff, mostly sweet stuff in fact. I swear it has curbed my craving for cookies and candy type stuff. Now if I could work on the salty snack thing. Anyone make a potato chip juice?
