1. Welcome to Thailand Vapers, an English language forum for members in Thailand and the rest of Asia to talk about vaping.
    Commonly referred to as e-cigarettes, vaping is really about the use of personal vaporizers (mods) and atomizers (tanks, clearos, RBAs, RDAs, RTAs) filled with e-liquid.

    the past weeks i have some numb feeling in my liver area, its not a pain, its just feels that my liver is quite a bit burden by something ....

    it cant be alcohol cause i barely drink any, and
    it cant be Exotoxins like, Aspartame or MSG cause i stay aways from those as well.

    one thing it might be could be that i have had my last amalgan teeth removed 2 months ago and the thai dentist didnt use a rubber dam as it would be the normal way to do it. but i did some follow up 2 month detoxifing after that and had no issues with the liver at all, so i thought it is some remaining amalgan residues, even thou some of the mercury might stick into the brain yet, but dont have the proper tools yet to get it out from there

    anyways ....
    i stumbled across another link about Beer basially
    8 Beers That You Should Stop Drinking Immediately | The Mind Unleashed
    and figured that some beers contain PG which is mentioned in a really bad way, so i did some research on PG and liver damage and it appears to be a possibilty ....
    Propylene Glycol: The Good, the Bad and the Alternatives - NaturalNews.com
    Ethylene Glycol and Propylene Glycol Toxicity: What is Propylene Glycol | ATSDR - Environmental Medicine & Environmental Health Education - CSEM
    hence i wondering if there is any good 100% VG juice out there, from that i read is that they barely have a good taste but lots of vapor, but then there are companies out there like Alien Vape something which produce only 100% VG Juice ....
    so wanted to ask here first for opinions ...

    thx


    p.s. get me right guys not bashing about PG just want to find out what troubles my liver,

    if you're having liver problems, see a doctor.

    I vape mostly VG whenever I drip. It isn't this massive drop in flavor, I would actually just describe it as smoother. I do bump up the amount of flavoring a bit though, and I'm picking up some saline solution today to cut my VG down and enhance the flavor a bit. While I think there is a zero percent chance PG is doing anything to your liver from vaping it, I'd still recommend trying high VG juices just to see what you prefer.

    unless i broke some of my bones and need a x-ray or some other heavy machinery, there is really no need to see a thai doctor, sometimes it scares the shit that quite a lot of them lack the basic knowledge, from all the thai doctors i met so far not a single one would even get a job as nurse anywhere in Europe. And please take no offense a few of them are good friends to us, its just if they have pain they come to me and not the other way around.

    Interesting. Have you done this before? How much do you add? So by thinning the VG with saline it brings more flavor thru?

    Just curious, do you work in the medical field?

    Haven't done it before, but lots of people do it. You use .9% sterile saline solution and use 1 part saline to 9 parts VG, in other words 10%. It makes the VG easier to work with and basically adds salt, just like you would to your food. I wouldn't think it would bring more flavor through per se, just make the flavors taste better.

    I go to bumrungrad hospital and the doctors there are western educated and better than most doctors I've seen in the US.

    What scares the shit out of me are people trying to self-diagnose when they could have legitimate medical problems.

    Remind's me of a remark by Mark Twain, when he warned about reading to many medical books. You might die of an printing error. :rolling laugh::rolling laugh::rolling laugh:

    My GF's aunt just died of a hear attack due to diabetes. The aunt had a fear of doctor's and despite weight loss over one year never went to a doctor. I never understand the fear people have of going to see a doctor or a dentist, I am not a hypochondriac but if I have something hurting I go and see a Dr. Being middle age I am going to make sure I have regular yearly health check ups and as much as possible eat clean natural food.

    I lived in China for a couple of years and one of my biggest fears was seeing a local doctor or dentist. I would always arrange for a trip back home when I was due to see a dentist and luckily I never had to see a doctor for anything serious.

    The guys behind Alien Visions (Boab's Bounty is their most popular flavour) created their juice as 100% VG as they were allergic to PG. They don't make anything with more than 10% PG and you can check them out at avejuice.
