Today we will talk about side effects that may occur as a result of vaping an electronic cigarette and how to prevent them. First of all, we should note that everyone's body is different and reacts differently, so it is worth considering what is said here with limited liability.

What side effects can result from vaping an electronic cigarette?

Dehydration - This is one of the most common side effects when it comes to vaping. One of the main ingredients in vaping liquids is propylene glycol, one of its properties is to absorb fluids. The easiest way to deal with this is to simply drink more fluids, especially if you feel dry mouth.

Another way to deal with the phenomenon is to use liquids that contain more vegetable glycerin and less propylene glycol, such as liquids with a ratio of 80/20 pg/vg.

Sore throat and cough - Propylene glycol is a substance that can be allergenic for some people. Most of the time, sensitivity to e-cigarette vapor will go away on its own, but you can try glycerin-based liquids only.

Nicotine also plays a role in throat irritation. If you have chosen a higher nicotine level than you need, simply try a liquid with a lower nicotine concentration or no nicotine at all.

A change in the taste of your liquid - After vaping a certain liquid for a period of time, we may reach a point where we no longer feel the taste of the liquid or the taste becomes strange. You can avoid this phenomenon by replacing the liquid with a different flavor for at least a few days.

Headache - There are several factors that can cause headaches. If you are in the process of quitting tobacco, this can cause this phenomenon. When you quit tobacco, the body does not receive thousands of chemicals and alkaloids that it was used to receiving in addition to nicotine for years. Withdrawal from these substances can cause headaches that will go away over time.

Another reason could be that the nicotine level is too high. If you have chosen a liquid with a high nicotine level, you can try taking a weaker liquid or one without nicotine at all and see if that helps. Dehydration can also cause headaches. As we have already mentioned in other articles, propylene glycol has the property of absorbing liquids.

Therefore, when using an electronic cigarette, it is recommended to drink more to replenish the fluid reserves in our body and avoid dehydration.

Another common side effect of vaping is quitting smoking!

Your sense of taste and smell may return to normal, the amount of phlegm and coughing will decrease, and you may begin to breathe better and feel healthier.

Of course, the best thing to put into your lungs is air. But compared to smoking tobacco cigarettes, the harm from a cigarette is significantly reduced!
