>looking for recipies for jow , got any ? thanks
i remember there was a jow recipe by james lacey in an old
issue of kungfu/wushu magazine, about a 2 years back.
also, if you get the book "secrets of the 7 star mantis style"
by lee kam wing, he has a recipe for his jow on the back
cover.
but, i must also warn, even if you have the recipe, unless
you are very familiar with all of the herbs, i really would not
recommend making your own jow. if only for the reason that,
when you go to buy the herbs, you must know what to look for.
very often the merchants will try to pass off inferior merchandise.
by inferior, i mean, an example would be for an root called
ting chut, the older it is the more potent it is, also the larger it is
the more desirable it is also. this is one of the main ingredients
of the over 30 different herbs; almost without fail, the merchant will
try to pass off the young ones that are not as potent. (even to my
kung fu teacher.) same story for many of the other herbs also.
you really have to know what to look for to make the best jow.
also, after the herbs are bought and ground up, they still must
be left to sit in the alcohol/water/oil, depending on the recipe for at
least six months; preferable 1 - 1 1/2 years.
i say you would be better off just buying it from somewhere.
** an additional note. some jows are used for very recent wounds
while others are more for older wounds.
** also there is a big difference between kwong loon oil, or
generic type analgesic balms and jow. they are not the same thing.
those other things are just chinese ben gay. also, there are different
jows to use for the training of iron palm... this is something that should
definitely not be taken up without qualified instruction.
if you are having a very hard time getting jow, i would recommend lee
kam wing's wisest oil, as something you can get in many martial arts stores.
it is generally used on older wounds, but works pretty good on fresh bruises
too. a 4 oz bottle generally should go for about 10 bucks. definitely stay
away from the fu jow pai linament.. that stuff sucks. and i really don't
know about brain gray's iron palm linament.
i smelled that stuff, and it smelled more like alcohol than potent herbs to
me.
if you really want to get some quality jow, for recent injuries, you can
contact me by email and i'll work something out with you.
***note: jow is not to be used on open wounds, as it is an
anticoagulent, with a few mildly toxic ingredients...for external use only.

This is the traditional way. However, not the best as far as
extractions go. Think how expensive essential oils would be if they
used those methods on roots and barks.
I dont recommend purchasing a few hundred dollars worth of equipment
and pressure cookers to cut time by about 80% however.
> i say you would be better off just buying it from somewhere.
If you can get it locally and not through mail order with shipping and
handling and minimum orders. And at a decent price.

Oil for iron palm?

Why didnt you like tak wah's formula? My thoughts on it is that it
absorbed like a motherfucker. What the hell was that? Ether?

Forget brian gray.

I don't know, some people really throw themselves into their martial
arts...
I'm so tempted to start a puns thread, but I just can't bring myself to
do it.

So let it be written, so let it be done!
We really should toss this thread out the window. Be careful it
doesnt blow back at us though.

On your head be it, Don. I knew if I stuck around long enough this
thread would jerk back to life.

That's it, Don - show some spunk. You're the cream of the rma crop.

Of crowning impotence in any thread is the avoidance of any premature
eruption or discharging of unwanted information. Cum hell or high
water, I'll try to avoid that.
Hold on, before you start spewing about the subject, grab onto the
proper facts or they'll spring back up to dribble on your parade.

There are many oozing with enthusiasm for this kind of training.
Unfortunatly for them many pull out early. Cultivating patience and
learining the proper timing and focus for this kind of training will
have you headed in the right direction.
In my opinion the methods involving thrusting are superior. More
power can be genetrated from the hips and waist.

Pun threads come and go. I'm glad we took my advice and decided to
terminate the pun thread before things got out of hand. I myself had
to reach deep down and bring out the strength needed to avoid starting
another pun thread.
