Niacin 500mg

I made the mistake of not researching this product before buying. I based my decision on what everybody was writing. After I got the product and I took it I got the flushing and everything as expected but actually, I thought it was much worse than expected. For me, I got all the flushing symptoms worse than expected. It made me feel so dizzy, weak muscles, and thirsty. YES, you get a massive burning feel, worse than I've ever had! Strangely it relaxed all my muscles, made feel like pooping, which I did, rather well, just a healthy poop. The shock on my system made me tired. Do it before bedtime. If you are going to try this product, pls do your research! I always do, but this time I didn't which is dangerous! Unless you are truly suffering from vitamin D3 this product is dangerously potent!

Vitamin B3: Eggs are a good source of vitamin B3 as well as protein. Feb 8, 2019, update - I took my vitamin with liquid protein and didn't get any immediate symptoms. I'm still waiting. It's been almost 45 mins. Maybe the key to taking it is taking it with HIGH protein. The flush did come about an hour later. It started with light head tingling and then a stronger burning sensation. Then it became a sunburn like flush throughout my face. It lasts about 40 mins. No body flush. So 2/10/2019 I took another one. At first I thought oh strange nothing. An hour later comes along, head tingling head flush, face flush, massive body flush, muscle weakness, I had to run to the bathroom, loss of bowels (sat on the toilet - i was quite surprised needless to say - cleaned me out well!), weakness was so bad i think i was on the verge of passing out, shut my eyes and leaned against the wall. I got the chills. I was so weak and tired I laid down. Ovaries and tubes felt like they were throbbing and on fire!!! I'm curled up in the fetal position in pain praying it ends. I'm covered in blankets to keep me warm. I guess I fall asleep for about 20 mins. About an hour after it started it all subsided and stopped. I'm very thirsty. I had just got done breakfast (2 eggs and about an ounce of salami) and a little bit of greens protein drink. Two days ago, I had a very potent greens drink with maaca, cocao powder, morninga powder, and homemade kefir. I only got the head flush. After today, I'd need to be super brave to take another tablet. Definitely don't take it before or during work LOL OMG!

So, I am on a journey to cleanse my by body of toxins from all the junk food I’ve eaten over the years and wanting to change to a healthier lifestyle and came across these pills for ‘flushing toxins’ among a couple other vitamins. I take a pill while heating up some nachos. After about 10-15 minutes I became a bit itchy and felt some prickly/heated areas on my body. Look in the mirror and ears are dark red and forehead bright red. I go outside to get some fresh air and the flushing started…. Immediately went to Amazon to see reviews and it made me panic, instantly (lol). I sincerely thought I was having an allergic reaction, my heart started beating so fast and I became ‘light’ all over my body. As I started to pray (I never do that 😂) I began crunching a Zyrtec!! Shaky knees at this point. I realized it was me who was making my heart race and just needed to calm down! After what felt like an hour I was a little calmed down and the heat was slightly less my arms started to get red and blanching in areas I decided to jump in the shower. After the shower I noticed all the red had subsided from my face, arms and neck. My face actually looked refreshed! While I still feel a sense of heightened-ness I enjoy the refreshed look of my facial skin in the mirror. Lastly, I do think this high of dose should come with a clear warning of the flushing and still a little nervous if I’ll have any additional side effects the rest of today.

I had never knowingly taken Niacin. Never thought about it. But heard some of the excellent health benefits and thought - hey I'll give it a shot since I've been on a bit of a vitamin regimen. Taking a 500mg Niacin is a total trip. If you take it on an empty stomach and you don't saturate yourself with copious amounts of water to dilute it you will very likely experience an interesting "TRIP!" At just about the 15 minute mark (I timed it) you will start feeling a sort of rush of blood to your face, and then throughout your body, then about 2-4 minutes later while you feel like you are baking in the sun, a new sensation will begin. You'll start feeling pins and needles all over your skin, and your skin will start getting red, and incredibly itchy. Try to avoid scratching too much as you'll not really undo what's happening. This entire sensation will last for about 30-40 minutes then it'll all go away. Personally I get a kick out of it, but when the itchy part comes on it can be annoying. I'm told that most people that try to get on a Niacin regime fail to continue because they cannot handle the experience of the FLUSH. So they lose out on the benefits of what Niacin can do for you. I would suggest doing it on an empty stomach at least once so you know the feeling. Then here is the trick. Make sure to drink at least 32 oz of water 'before' you take your Niacin pill. Also do it shortly after you ate a meal. Most likely if you do those 2 steps, you won't experience the "FLUSH." You can also take an aspirin about 10 minutes before you take the Niacin and I've heard that works pretty well to avoid or reduce the flush. Good luck, it's good for you and I hope you get a kick out of the "FLUSH!" and then figure out what you need to do so you can avoid it if you don't like the experience.

Holy crap the side effects on these are horrendous! Of course I may be sensitive. I took a pill and then looked at the bottle and did not see the no flush I thought I had ordered....oops well how bad could it be right?! So I read the back of the bottle and said may cause flushing and a prickly feeling on skin. Ok I thought so a hot flash and weird skin, can’t be to bad. Then off to work I went. It only takes 6-8 minutes to get to work. I’m walking down the hallway to go change into my uniform and my stomach feels a little uneasy, no biggie. I get in the changing room, look at my face and it’s bright red...hmm! Definitely flushes! Then I was changing and my body (especially the face) was ON FIRE! I felt like I had climbed in the oven, but I continued thinking I’ll just get ice for my face. I walk out and get a bag of ice and start feeling like I will pass out or throw up. So I go lay down your head down on the desk, try to text my husband that this was a BAD idea to try on a work day! My lips are tingling and weird, my hands are a scary blanched white and the rest of my body is tomato colored. The charge nurse comes out and says you need to go to the ER.... I argued unsuccessfully, and as I’m being whisked off by freaked out looking staff, the Dr. Is standing there going , yes you need to go to the ER! I’m wheeled in. Feeling extremely shaky, feeling like prickles are poking me everywhere, and red and itching like mad.... then later after check in shaking and cold and itchy. They see me and tell me they are giving me Benadryl. Literally a minute after taking it, I feel myself heat up again. The ladies that are with me look quite freaked out and say the dr needs to see me right away. He sees me again and orders ibuprofen to knock the prostaglandins out that are making my body react like this. Thankfully it starts working after about 30 minutes and I am normal human colored again. The itching was so intense, and my clothes felt like they had cactus prickles in them. Needless to say I will NOT be trying this again! It was most definitely the most expensive medicine I have now tried 😩

I have used niacin for many years. I’ve used nutricost, solgar now brand and others. Every time I use the Nutri cost brand the strength whether it is in powder, form or capsule form varies. Sometimes the strength is strong as sometimes the strength is weak.. The whole purpose of nicotinic acid also known as niacin B3 in instant release is to experience a strong flush, which is where your health benefits come in. The negative reviews are from people who have not done enough research to know that the reactions they have are normal and not an allergic reaction. If you want to know everything about niacin, and the benefits, read the book by Abram Hoffer, Niacin the real story. This book is amazing! There are 2 editions sold here on Amazon. Another good book to teach you how the body truly functions is by dr Robert Morse called The detox miracle sourcebook. He has been teaching a raw vegan lifestyle for 50 years which includes herbs and he has YouTube channels that will change the way you look at food The only kind of niacin that I personally would take is the instant release, because sustained-release is hard on your liver. The no flush niacin does not reap the benefits as the flush instant release niacin. I take 3000 mg per day to reap the benefits. I did work up to this amount many years ago. As your body gets used to the niacin, the flushes will become almost nonexistent . It is stronger on an empty stomach with food is tends to be less intense . Sometimes I skip a few days a week just so I have that stronger flush I never go more than 2 or 3 days of doses. I actually love the flush. I know that it is working, and my blood work proves it My yearly blood work is exceptional, including my blood pressure which is exceptionally good at an average of 108/65. One does need to adhere to a very healthy diet and omit processed foods, junk food, excessive sugar, fried foods, and eat more fresh raw fruits and vegetables. if you eat meat, keep the meats lean like chicken and fish and steer clear of red meat as much as possible. I have learned through a decade of consistent research that Food is the cause of most all disease. It is so important to eat healthy. If you do not take care of your body, your body will not take care of you. With that being said, Nutri cost vitamins I have ordered over the years have had a varied strength , sometimes very weak and other times strong. So that’s disappointing. The solgar brand has always been strong for me and the brands that are slow sustain release is not good on your liver, from the research I have read It is also great to take with vitamin C at the time of your doses, because this helps your body absorb the niacin much better. I hope this helps someone who is confused about whether to take no flush, with flush instant, slow, release, and so forth. The flush niacin will always have ingredient as nicotinic acid.

No amount of diet and exercise could fix my cholesterol until I started taking niacin. My LDL dropped over 50 points after taking this supplement for a month. The flushing was bad for the first week, but my body got used to it. There'll still be an occasional flare up, but not quite as intense as that first week. It helps to take it before bed so that you're well zonked out when it happens.

I haven’t been taking it lately. I figured out that it really makes me itchy and makes me hot. Of course that’s what this niacin does but the itching part. I don’t know. I think it’s because I’m maxed out and I need I have to get back off.

Almost no one needs this much as a dosage at one time. It causes severe flushing of the skin. You need to be careful ingesting this amount of Niacin at one time, it has potential to be very dangerous without consulting your doctor.

毎日愛飲しています。疲れているときはフラッシュがありますが、個人的には気になりません。

某女優さんの雑誌のインタビューで、「ナイアシン」が睡眠の質を良くすると言っていたので、こちらを購入してみた。たしかに他の方が言っているように、接種後、体が熱くなる感はあります。ただ寝る寸前に飲むと、熱くなる感を感じず、熟睡できるようになりました。

カプセルが外れていて粉まみれだった ナイアシンを7.8年近く色々なところで購入し、飲んでいるが、こんなに雑なのは初めてだった

とても安いですが、食べた後に全身の皮膚に違和感を感じました。人によっては合うのかもしれません。

カプセルがちょっと大きいのは仕方ないと思いますが。
