Why Should You Buy Premium Lab Created E-juiceAt the heart of e-cigarettes and vaping is the e-juice. Also known as e-liquid, this is the component where all the flavor is stored. With the popularity of vaping there are a wide variety of e-juices and flavors available. The best quality product is a premium lab created e-juice.

 

E-juices can either be made in a lab into a pre-mixed liquid or it can be homemade. The lab created e-juices are made in a controlled environment by trained technicians. The ingredients used are generally USP high grade products. This produces a smooth, quality e-juice. Homemade e-juices can be inconsistent with their textures and flavors. There is also no guarantee of a safe product.

 

The two main ingredients in the base of an e-juice are propylene glycol (PG) and vegetable glycerin (VG). The mix of the two products creates a smooth base. Propylene glycol is a chemical that is often used in common food products. It can be found as a flavor carrier in foods, an ingredient in food coloring and an additive in many medications.

 

Vegetable glycerin, also known as vegetable glycerol, is a plant based product. According to Global Healing Center, it is a clear, odorless liquid that is made from plant oils such as palm, coconut or soy. The texture of vegetable glycerin is similar to an oil or syrup. For household or food use it must be USP grade. This is 99% pure vegetable glycerin product. It’s often used in lotions, shampoos and toothpastes.

 

Other ingredients that make up an e-juice are water, flavorings and nicotine. The flavorings added can be natural or artificial. E-juices made in a lab are made with USP food grade flavors. The amount of nicotine that is used varies. E-juices can have levels of nicotine from 0mg to 24mg. Anything above 24mg is not recommended.

 

E-juices are sensitive to light. Lab produced products are generally bottled in colored containers to protect the liquid from sunlight. The bottles have expiration dates and manufactured dates to ensure you are buying the freshest product possible. When buying e-juices it’s best to purchase new flavors in small quantities until you are sure the flavor works for you. E-juices can be found in both refillable and prefilled cartridges.

 

There are a wide variety of lab produced e-juice flavors. They range from fruity to exotic, including tobacco and menthol flavors for a more traditional cigarette-like experience. There are also e-juices with a higher vegetable glycerin content, also called high VG flavors, for vape smokers who may be allergic to propylene glycol. The higher VG flavors produce a larger vapor cloud. You can mix and match lab produced e-juices to fit your specific tastes.

 

There are many different types and flavors of e-juices for vape lovers. The flavors come in a variety of nicotine levels for a personalized vape experience. E-juice bars can be found in many locations, and are a great place to try out new flavors and different brands. Be adventurous, try out a new flavor today.
