Dit Da Jow
(Iron Hit Wine or Rice Hit Wine)

The use of a good herbal liniment is necessary for any type of Iron Palm conditioning or conditioning methods for the hands and body. Using the wrong types of conditioning methods can lead to both short term and long term damage to the bones, ligaments, joints, muscles tendons and internal organs. The effects of conditioning improperly can lead to permanent disfigurements to the specific area being conditioned. A good herbal liniment and proper conditioning techniques can drastically reduce the possibility of damaging side effects from Iron Palm or any other conditioning method.

There are many symptoms and injuries that Dit Da Jow can be used for. Over the years from my research and talking with a lot of herbal doctors and martial artists, I find that even today, people are discovering new ways for using Dit Da Jow. The most common uses for Dit Da Jow are:


· Martial arts conditioning methods (hands, shins, forearms, chest, etc.)

Dit Da Jow (Iron or Rice Hit Wine) is a mixture of special herbs in an alcohol or water base that is specifically recommended for Iron Palm Training and other conditioning methods of the body. There are many different forms of Dit Da Jow, and only through trial and error can a person find which ones work and which ones are ineffective. Some recipes for Dit Da Jow have only a couple herbs, while others can have 20 or more herbs. It is not the number of herbs that make a good Dit Da Jow liniment, it is the proper mixture of the herbs and the effects the herbs have on the body. Some herbs, if not mixed properly can counteract the effects of another herb, or mix together and create a poison that is not good for the skin at all. It is important that you research any Dit Da Jow liniment if you decide to make it yourself.
