PG is thinner than VG, PG gives a better throat hit than VG, VG gives more vapor than PG. Some people are allergic to PG so they can only use VG based e-juice.

I like a 70% PG, 30% VG mix. It's all about personal preference, which is why many e-juice vendors will give you a choice of PG or VG or a mix of both and the percentage of the mix.

Jerry
thanks for that
you say some people are allergic to PG what are the symptoms?
cheers

River, the ones who I know are allergic, will get swollen eyelids, blurry vision, rashes. If you are having an allergic reaction to PG, you will know it.

thanks for that jerry
so far so good

hi there river!

for myself, i have found a mix of the two suits me the best all round- i had issues with using pure vg. as jerry says, you will definitely know if there's a allergy type thing going on but it seems like you're doing just fine! xxx

i am
but i have noticed im getting a lot of heartburn/acid
dont know if vape to blame or reaction to not smoking gyess time will tell

I certainly found I had heartburn for a few weeks after making the switch River and I'm pretty sure I've read the same from others . . . it did settle down all ok though - I put it down to my body adjusting to not having all those nasty chemicals pumped into it.

But, if you're at all concerned it's worth having a quick check up with your GP.

Yes, quite a few people report digestive upsets when they start vaping

It's not just PG that one may be allergic to, some peeps also have a reaction to VG But most peeps react to neither
