Dehydration can be a problem for many vapers, but there are steps you can take to minimise or even eliminate this issue. Read on for more information about the relationship between dehydration and vaping.
Why is vaping linked to dehydration?
Many people are surprised to learn that vaping can cause dehydration, but the side effects of the activities can include dry mouths. The ingredients in e-juice that cause dehydration are propylene glycol and vegetable glycerin. These are referred to as PG and VG for short. These ingredients are humectants, which stick to water molecules. Once they contact your saliva, they quickly soak it up. This results in dehydration.

How do I know if I am dehydrated?
We need to constantly add fresh water to our bodies to ensure their systems can work properly. If your systems are not receiving enough hydration, you may get a dry mouth and start to feel thirsty. Dark circles may become visible underneath your eyes, and you could feel dizzy and get a headache. You may also feel more tired than normal, and your eyes may become dry.
How serious is dehydration?
It is vital that you do not underestimate the seriousness of hydration. In some situations, death is a major risk of dehydration. It is unlikely that vaping alone will cause you to become this dehydrated, but the dangers of dehydration should be taken very seriously. If you suspect you have chronic dehydration, you should seek out medical help as quickly as possible.
What are the risks of repeated or ongoing hydration?
If you have continuous or recurring dehydration, you could become constipated and develop blood pressure problems. You could also start suffering from chronic fatigue and your kidney, bladder and urinary tract could be put under substantial pressure. If dehydration becomes severe, problems could become serious or even life-threatening.
How to prevent dehydration when vaping?
There are many steps you can take to avoid dehydration as a vaper. These include drinking more water, avoiding alcohol and caffeine, and consuming more fruit and vegetables that are high in water. You may also wish to change your VG:PG ratio – it is often claimed that VG will dry you out less than PG. You may also wish to stop vaping or cut down on the activity if you do become dehydrated. Vaping can cause dehydration, but you are more likely to be affected if you are doing something else that will also reduce your water levels.
