vanadyl sulfate ???

[girlygirl44]

Hi everyone!

I like to take vanadyl sulfate but it makes me start breaking out w/ acne? Why does this cause this to happen? I like to take it because it makes me vascular and leaner but i can't stand the side-effect. Is there anything else that i can take that will give me the same result? Can anyone help me out please?

I have no idea what that is, bump I'll bump for you *edit googled it*

My 1st instinct is to ask you what your diet is like?

I can achieve mad pumps & vascularity via diet & training alone...

I used vanadyl sulfate 6 yrs ago during contest prep, but coudlnt' tell you if it actually did anything. I would venture that it isn't the Vanadyl itself that is making the difference for you as I just don't beleive any one supplement can do that.

Here's an article about it - http://www.vanderbilt.edu/AnS/psychology/health_psychology/vanadylsulfate.html

As far as breakign out - is that somethign you experience w/ any brand of vanadyl? Might be something in the preparation of it that you are sensitive to.

For acne in general, I find Vit B5 (pantothenic acid) does wonders if you choose to continue w/ vanadyl.

Thx for your responses ladies! I noticed i begin breaking out w/ zits after i go on vs for a few days, and after i go off my skin clears up. I tried both vitamin world & optimum nutrition's brands. However, when EAS made their version called V2G way back, i don't recall having skin problems. But they don't make it anymore. I just noticed that when i was on vs, i became more vascular, leaner. I'm at 17% bf so it helped me along, i wasn't say 180lbs and it was an overnight success where i dropped alot of weight. I'm just saying it was an aid, that's all. Does anyone think NO2 or supplements like that are worth looking into?

Thank you!

I dont have any experience w/ NO2 -- however I think I have a sample pack of NO Explode or something - maybe i'll give that a shot in the gym tonite & see what it does for me.
