Anybody ever try this stuff? Dan Duchaine listed it in his book as one of the best supplements thats legal. I only found mixed reviews.
 
Ive tried it , only a small bottle when I was first starting out. Alot of my gains were beginner gains along with my excessive nutritional needs and just killing myself when I was in the gym.

So I cant definitively say it helped but , but it didnt hinder me. Im sure I would of gotten the same games as without at the level I was at when I took it.

Try it , but I dont see it being worth it and this was also only a few years ago so its not like delivery and absorbtion etc has been improved greatly.

Use the money on a clean whole foods diet , or staple supplements like protein , creatine. Or if you do decide to try it out get the cheapest bottle you can.
 
I think it was used for vascularity. It was big years ago. If it really worked it would still be popular - like protien or creatine.
Just my opinion. It didn't do anything noticiable for me.
 
I read an old article that mentioned this stuff the other day. I suspect if it was great it would be either illegal for otc dispensing or selling like crazy.
 
That stuff was later shown to be bunk for most people. It only helps a small part of the population that needs help in sensitivity to insulin.
 
Vanadyl Sulfate (VS) IMO is an awesome product!! It's the mineral vanadium bonded with sulphur. What it does is it removes glucose from the blood. What that means is when you eat a high GI carb large amounts of glucose goes to the blood. With large amounts of glucose going in the blood in response the pancreas secretes insulin which is a storage hormone and removes blood glucose and stores it in either the muscle or as fat. Obviously as a BBer or lifter that is what you want.....The problem is Insulin can only store glucose in the muscle if the insulin threshold is low enough. If the amount of insulin is high them the insulin will store the glucose as FAT! So how does Vanadyl Sulfate help????? VS helps when takin with High GI carbs by removing on it's own some of the blood glucose which makes it so the pancreas doesn't have to release as much insulin (below threshold) so that the insulin threshold will remain low enough to help store the glucose in the muscle. The best way to use VS is if you are cutting or dieting take 1 tab (10mg) during the first few bites of your high GI containing meal. If you are bulking take 1 tab after your meal. For even BETTER results combine VS with Chromium Polynicotinate and you will be able to handle high GI carbs a lot better stay drier and leaner and gain a lot of strength.
