Do Vapes Have Calories?

Vapes and their respective e-liquids, are frequently asked if they contain calories. Although vaping may not seem directly associated with caloric intake like food and drinks do, its relationship to overall energy intake should not be overlooked. Let’s investigate this further by considering how different kinds of vaping liquid might impact this aspect of energy expenditure and consumption.

What Are E-Liquids Made Up Of?

E-liquids used in vape pens contain four main ingredients: propylene glycol (PG), vegetable glycerin (VG), flavorings and often nicotine. Of these components, vegetable glycerin could contribute most calories.

Vegetable Glycerin (VG), an alcohol made of sugar from vegetable oils, is often added to electronic liquids in order to produce thicker clouds of vapor while increasing sweetness. Although VG contains calories in small amounts during typical vaping sessions, its overall impact should remain negligible.

How Many Calories do E-Liquids Contain?

Simply stated, the amount of calories present in an e-liquid is negligible for two reasons. Here’s why.

Vegetable Glycerin (VG): Although vegetable glycerin does contain calories (roughly 4 per gram), typically, only 60-70% of 30ml bottles containing e-liquid contain this ingredient, meaning only a portion would provide calories.

Propylene Glycol (PG): Another popular ingredient found in electronic cigarettes, PG has virtually zero calorific intake and plays an essential part in producing vapor and throat hit while not contributing any additional calories to your daily tally.

Flavorings: E-liquid flavors tend to use small doses of flavoring agents which contain minimal or no calories at all, thus contributing minimally or at all to caloric intake.

Though vaping contains calories, most users won’t experience a noticeable change to their caloric intake from using e-liquids frequently.

Does Vaping Impact Your Weight?

mes Vaping itself likely won’t contribute directly to weight gain; unlike sugary drinks or food where calories are directly consumed as energy for body function. E-liquid VG doesn’t make an impactful contribution towards caloric intake either way; but vaping could indirectly have an impact on weight. For instance:

Nicotine and Appetite Suppression: Nicotine, the key component in most vapes, acts as an appetite suppressant and may reduce your desire to snack; leading to less caloric intake and potential weight loss over time – particularly early on when switching over.

Flavors and Cravings: Sweet flavors may cause cravings for food that lead to overeating – although not directly because of calories found within vaping products themselves but indirectly contributing to weight gain.

Dehydration and Water Retention: Vaping can contribute to dehydration through its effects on moisture levels in your body, sometimes leading to water retention which might make you feel bloated and full of fluid despite not actually increasing calories consumed. This condition should be seen as distinct from actual caloric consumption as vaping affects all those elements differently and this cannot be directly tied back into actual caloric intake.

Are Vapes A Source of Calories?

While vaping liquid does contain some calories from vegetable glycerin (VG), their impact won’t have any noticeable bearing on weight or daily caloric intake. Instead, focus on maintaining a healthy lifestyle rather than worrying too much about vaping calories!
