How Should Beginners Choose E-Liquid?

How should beginners choose e-liquid? How can one select a healthy and safe e-liquid? Whether you are a new vaper or an experienced user, choosing e-liquid can be quite confusing and troublesome, especially for beginners who are often in search of flavors similar to traditional cigarettes but find the results unsatisfactory after multiple attempts. Let's take a look at the common components of e-liquids on the market!
 
How should beginners choose e-liquid?

E-liquid mainly consists of four substances: "Vegetable Glycerin (VG)", "Propylene Glycol (PG)", "Nicotine", and "Flavoring".
How should beginners choose e-liquid? Vegetable Glycerin (VG):

It is a common pharmaceutical and food additive (widely used in making cakes, chocolates, and other sweets), highly hygroscopic, sweeter than PG (Propylene Glycol, which will be introduced later), odorless, colorless, and transparent, with fluidity similar to cooking oil.
As one of the basic components of e-liquid, VG is mainly used to produce a large amount of vapor.
VG has no significant side effects on the human body, but due to its viscous nature, it may slightly increase the difficulty of cleaning the atomizer.
Foreign e-cigarette enthusiasts often participate in various vapor competitions using pure VG e-liquid to produce massive vapor. If you find the e-liquid to be quite viscous, it indicates a high VG content.
How should beginners choose e-liquid? Propylene Glycol (PG):

A common pharmaceutical and food additive, hygroscopic, slightly sweet, odorless, colorless, and transparent, with fluidity similar to water. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) describes PG as "generally safe for human use".
As one of the basic components of e-liquid, PG is mainly used to "carry most of the e-liquid flavor" and produce "a small amount of vapor" and "throat hit". If you prefer "big vapor", you should choose e-liquid with a high VG content rather than a high PG content.
If you prefer a pronounced or rich flavor, choose e-liquid with a high PG content.
Additionally, while PG is generally safe for the human body, a small number of people may experience mild side effects such as throat discomfort or increased phlegm. These side effects are temporary and mild, not affecting overall health; simply stop using or switch to e-liquid with lower PG content (some e-liquids are PG-free) to resolve the issue.
How should beginners choose e-liquid? Nicotine:

Also known as nicotine, it is the addictive substance in cigarettes. The trace amounts of nicotine in e-liquid can satisfy cravings.
The nicotine content in e-liquid is often expressed as XXmg/ml. Generally, when purchasing e-liquid, you can choose from 24mg/ml (very high concentration), 16mg/ml (high concentration), 12mg/ml (medium concentration), 6mg/ml (low concentration), or 0mg/ml (nicotine-free). Nicotine is an important factor in producing the "throat hit" similar to that of traditional cigarettes. The higher the nicotine concentration in the e-liquid, the stronger the "throat hit", but it may also diminish the flavor of the e-liquid. This is why some customers report that lower concentration e-liquids can taste richer and smoother.
Moreover, many people criticize "e-cigarettes" for being unhealthy due to the presence of trace amounts of nicotine. However, with advancements in medicine, small doses of nicotine can effectively treat diseases like Parkinson's. Compared to the over 4,000 harmful substances produced by burning cigarettes, nicotine is relatively healthier. Want to truly achieve healthy smoking cessation? Just don't smoke anything, endure withdrawal symptoms, and resist the temptation to relapse!
Additionally, it is important to remind everyone that when selecting e-cigarettes and e-liquids, always choose products from manufacturers with a certain level of brand recognition and market share. In China, the main manufacturers include Kangcheng Yipin (Kingsong). Kangcheng Yipin has obtained multiple food-grade safety certifications both internationally and domestically.

The Kangcheng Chun e-liquid produced by Kangcheng Yipin has been tested in the market and received unanimous recognition and praise from consumers. However, some small enterprises, in order to reduce production costs, often neglect the interests of consumers by directly using industrial glycerin, industrial propylene glycol, and flavoring for blending. The products of these small manufacturers are often exposed online.
