- I recently started having a problem that may or may not be attributed
- to Vanadyl Sulfate. I recently started occassionally breaking out in
- what looks and feels like a bad sunburn, mainly over my face,arms,chest,
- & back, but also in places all over my body. This is only occuring after
- a good run or during my workouts. The symptoms last from between 1-2
- hours after my workout.
-
- I went to the health clinic here on campus, the first time this occured,
- but they were unable to determine what the was cause. At first, I
- thought the reaction was caused by a lotion I was recently given to get
- rid of another problem, but after the first occurence, I discontinued
- its use. But the problem has continued occuring since, usually during
- or soon after a workout.
-
- I don't know if it's the Vanadyl Sulfate causing the reaction or
- something else, but I've become real warry of it. If it is the VS, I'm
- wondering if it may be one of the "other" ingredients the maker, Bricker
- Labs, chose to put in it. These "other" ingredients include 20mg Niacin
- & 200 mcg Chromium Picolinate (Nutri 21). Maybe even the combination
- of the 3 ingredients could somehow cause this, I just don't know. I've
- taken the Chromium Picolinate before so doubt if this could be the
- culprit.
-
- Anyway, I am now wondering if anyone else is experiencing this same
- type of discomfort. I've been getting such good results thus far that
- I really don't want to discontinue the VS if I don't have to or can
- change something to stop the reactions.
-
- If anybody has any additional info, I would sure be interested in
- hearing about it.
