Niacin

[Garamin]

Recently,i decided to join the armed services,and my recruter told me to take Niacin pills to flush out my system of THC. They worked great for it,and while i was taking them,and my daily multevitemen(SP?,to tired to look it up right now),i noticed some extra gains during my workouts.I ended up lifting about 7 pounds more per rep,and could run a bit longer during my 3x weekly run.Is there any problem with continueing taking this combonation of pills?

Vitamin is Centrum for Men,and the Niacin is a 250mg,time release.I also started taking Six Star Body Fuel brand Advanced Creatine a month ago,if that information is needed.

Thanks a bunch for any info you can give me.

You're taking creatine and you are crediting these gains to the niacin?

Niacin is a water soluble vitamin also known as B3, and plays a major role in energy motabolism. It's found in grains.

Creatine helps provide energy (ATP) to muscle cells.

Funny Niacine story...

just thought this fit in this Niacine thread....DONT start by taking more than you are somewhat use to....in other words ease your way up...I started with something like 250 or 400 grams honestly I don't remember, but I literally had to stand up and curl around to try and stop the horrible itching!!! I took it last year duing wrestling as I found it in the cabinet and new it was just a vitamin, but din't know the possible reaction....I was almost blood red all over and my skin had a bumpy rash that went away by the following morning...It lasted terribly for about a half an hour, but apparently this is common and it's not an allergic effect, just something your body isn't use to...ciaou:crackup:
