Vanadyl Sulfate is considered to be an insulin mimicker. What insulin actually does is shuttle amino acids and other nutrients around your body to their destination. It is usually released in high quantites when there has been a large amount of glucose ingested into the body. What happens here is the muscles either require the glucose and nutrients that are being shuttled their way or it doesn't. If it doesnt then the insulin is liklely to help store the remainder of what is not needed as bodyfat. For this main reason it is advised that people tend to stay away from foods that are high in sugar as this allows for a great increase in insulin and it is more likely that the sugar if not needed will be stored as bodyfat. Vanadyl Sulfate is important to bodybuilders in that it mimicks insulin therefore bodybuilders can use it to help shuttle nutrients into the muscle cells when they are greatly required (right after a workout). In short your body can be triggered into reacting in a set way at times when it can of some benefit. How exaclty is this of benefit you may ask. Well being able to trigger off something that reacts in the same way as insulin not only enables your body to force more glucose into your muscle cells but also to force more amino acids in there. All this means is that a greater size increase in muscles as well as an increase in strength. It also allows for what some people describe as an excellent pump and makes there muscles feel more full. If you are going to use this supplement stick to doses not exceeding 80mg, but being more safe nothing over 60mgs. Side effects are not too bad on this, in fact the only main side effects reported are a possible headache for a little while after ingesting and what feels like what can only be described as a bloodrush. It is not harmful and goes away 15 -20 minutes after ingesting. Remember not everyone gets these side effects. Last thing to be metnioned is for obvious reasons this supplement should only be consumed with food.
