Title: HFR Nitric Gel Burned me.
Post by: Eat2Grow on June 05, 2007, 09:40:01 PM

I got a sample of the HFR nitric oxide gel formula, rubbed it on and within 3 minutes my skin was blood red and burning like a guy.  Anyone else try this stuff, have same reaction? 

I washed it off right away, but now 3 hrs later, my skin is still red and raw.

One of the main active ingredients if this product is Methyl Nicotinate which is a chemical involved in "blushing"

I would imagine that the product brought too much blood to the surface vessels in your arm causing redness etc

I always get the same thing if I get "ralgex" or other muscle sorness sprays touching my skin

Maybe the same ingredient?

It wasn't the redness,, it burned, as in very painfull burning.  It hurt for hours.  It started off tingling, then turned into burning within 1 minute.  My buddy touched my arm to spot me and was suprised hot hot my skin was. 

Yes I worked out after washing it off, can't let a burn ruin a workout.
