Reminder : Salt Nicotine

In 2019, the Bar à Diy website was published and we explained what salt nicotine are. After all these years, a reminder is in order. More and more of you are ordering your e-liquids in salt nicotine.

What is Salt Nicotine?

This is a form of nicotine invented in the United States. This form of nicotine is very similar to that found naturally in plants. It has a different pH from traditional nicotine, which is purified. Whereas traditional nicotine has a pH of around 8, salt nicotine has a pH of between 5 and 6, so is much closer to the nicotine found in a blond cigarette. What's more, nicotine salt is a nicotine enriched with benzoic acid. This acid stabilises the salt nicotine in the PG/VG bases.

Absorption of Salt nicotine by the body

Thanks to the method used to extract salt nicotine, they are absorbed by the body much more quickly than traditional nicotine. What's more, because of its more natural appearance, the nicotine receptors in the brain bind to it for longer. As a result, vapers will feel full more quickly and for longer. So there are many benefits.

The Benefits of Salt Nicotine

As mentioned above, the first advantage is that nicotine is absorbed quickly and over a long period. The sensation of craving will be weaker and will occur over a longer period. This also means that your consumption of e-liquid will be lower than that of a conventional nicotine vape. In fact, if you're satisfied more quickly and for longer, you'll be vaping less often. What's more, you can choose a higher level of nicotine (up to 16mg/ml on www.baradiy.com), which also means you'll be satisfied more quickly and therefore consume less.

Another advantage is the hit! Whereas the throat hit or sensation in the throat can be irritating when you vape traditional nicotine, with nicotine salt you get a very mild hit, very similar to that of a traditional cigarette. So the transition, and therefore your smoking cessation, will be much smoother and more natural.

What equipment should I use to take Salt nicotine correctly?

Be careful! Your equipment must be suitable for using salt nicotine. This is because nicotine is not vapourised in quite the same way. You'll need to use a low-power electronic cigarette, less than 20 watts, with a high-value resistor, from 1.0 ohm upwards. Moreover, it's preferable to use indirect inhalation or a tight draw, similar to a combustion cigarette. Using an electronic cigarette that is too powerful can cause nicotine overdose. You'll be inhaling more vapour and therefore more nicotine. So be sure to follow this advice for a pleasant, risk-free experience.

Who are Salt nicotine for?

This form of nicotine is ideal for very heavy smokers and new vapers, but also for vapers who are fed up of always having their vaporiser in their hand. They're also recommended for users who can't stand the hit of traditional nicotine. And finally, they can satisfy vapers who still smoke a few cigarettes and help them complete their transition.
