In 2007 there was a story about a 17 year old girl who died from Bengay poisoning. She was a track star who used Icy Hot and Bengay to soothe her sore muscles and joints. One of the primary active ingredients in Bengay is Methyl Salicylate. According to the studies, side effects of that chemical have been known to be muscle cramps and joint pain…the very reason why a person would want to use it in the first place! How’s that for irony? Doctors have said say excessive use is dangerous, but who is to judge at what level does it become fatal to the body? Would you want to find out what that limit is?

Dit Da Jow is made from traditional chinese herbs soaked in alcohol, so it’s completely natural!  Like most things, the more natural something is, the better. This is especially important to athletes who want to optimize performance. Less junk in the body means you can be faster, quicker, and also decrease downtime from heavy workouts.

Want to be physically stronger while being able to combat things like arthritis, tendonitis, shin splints, tennis elbow, pulled hamstrings, and other banes of athletes…and anyone who likes to be physically capable, Dit Da Jow is your answer, according to Chinese folklore of course!
