I always take a prework out like Jac3d and I love the tingle feeling. I can take 3 scoops of Jack3d and and drink a large coffee before a workout and I'm perfectly fine. I alway get good pumps and better workouts from it. I also never got fucked up from ephedra. So I was reading about some of the cholesterol benefits of taking Niacin. So before I went to the gyn this afternoon I took one 250mg pill of Niacin. I took no other preworkout with the niacin. So the gym is about a 15 minute drive. By the time I was half way to the gym I could tell this was way more intense than the Jack3d in the tingle effect. I was saying to my wife I was surprised how quickly I was feeling the effects. By the time I got to the gym I made it about 10 steps in and I felt like I was going to pass out. I grayed out pretty bad and had to sit down. I pounded two bottles of water with no help to the way I was feeling and a buddy bough me a poweraid. I pounded that for the sugar cause it honestly felt like my blood sugar dropped and I was hypoglycemic. The poweraid helped alot and after about 15 minutes sitting on the floor and feeling slightly embarrassed I managed to pick myself up and managed to get in a halfass workout.
Has anyone had any kinds of side effects like this from taking niacin before? I read people are taking 1500mg a day of this stuff. 250mg knocked me on my ass. I told my wife I was glad I did not take two pills or the front desk may have called an ambulance cause no doubt I would have passed out. I have never passed out in my life and this was without a doubt as close as I want to come.
