I'm a 0mg vaper that used to smoke.A worrying thought crossed my mind (picture a tumbleweed rolling in the Nevada desert).
8 Members use 0 mg nicotine. Are these people former smokers who have reduced nicotine to zero (in which case well done), or are they new vapers who have never smoked ?
If the latter is the case, then perhaps there is a problem (as some allege) with non smokers being attracted to vaping. We all know (and accept) that there may be health related problems with vaping, even when no nicotine is used.
The number is statistically not insignificant - at around 10%.
Perhaps the 8 members could put my mind at rest(annoying tumbleweed) by indicating whether they were smokers or not.

Just a general poll to see what the numbers are...
Numbers are stacking up very much in favour of nicotine @JohannB
The poll currently sits at 99 nicotine, 9 no nicotine
I see that yeah! I think the general consensus of non-smokers is just that why start if you’re going to vape 0mg anyway?
On another note, I would like to try the medicinal vapes like the one for sinusitis. Any idea if it has been discussed here before?

I think the poll is a good one indeed. Lets see how it develops
As for sinusitis, no, havent seen or heard much about that.
The medicinal value of "sinu-vape and flugonvape is probably based on the fact that menthol and possibly cinnamon, or some other unproven herb or spice, are added to the juice. Unfortunately there is no guarantee that they will have any effect on the patient (perhaps a placebo effect).
The company claims that the "medicinal" juice targets several symptoms. The way I interpret this is that if I shoot a gun at a target I may, or most likely will not, hit it. They claim to target the symptoms, but there is no guarantee or evidence that you will be cured.
According to a health based website there is "...no widely-accepted, conclusive scientific evidence that supports the use of menthol in treating any medical condition".
I know this is off topic but can't resist challenging snake oil salesmen.
I did the same from an initial 9%. Came down a bit to fast and had a six week relapse going from 6% to 4%. On 2.5% now but will take it slow from here on in, reducing in smaller percentages each time. Aiming for 0% at the end of the day.I started vaping on 6mg... Quickly moved to 3mg... and since I started DIY i vape 2.5mg... planning on making my next batch 2mg... Eventually want to try and stop the nicotine altogether...
@Puff the Magic Dragon The Flugonvape has Eucalyptus, not menthol, in it. Because of the eucalyptus , it does clear the nose somewhat offering symptomatic and temporary relief. No, I don't work for the company lol - but I bought the product a short while ago. I don't vape menthol, but I guess it would have the same effect.The medicinal value of "sinu-vape and flugonvape is probably based on the fact that menthol and possibly cinnamon, or some other unproven herb or spice, are added to the juice.

@JsPLAYn Ah! You've hit the nail on the head! My first few bottles were 3mg. After that I bought a stock of 0mg in various flavours, hoping to get myself off nicotine. However, I've been soooo disappointed in my second stock (zero nic). I thought it was just that I loved the first lot (3mg) because of the "newness" factor of vaping. Maybe you've got a point about the nicotine throat hit and increased flavour. I think I'll have to buy some nicotine concentrate and add it to all my zero nic!!I kinda don't like the fact that 0mg has no throat hit and to me the flava also differs??
So I'm vaping nicotine for the throat hit perhaps?
