Niacin and detoxing
« on: February 27, 2009, 11:20:43 PM »
I read online that niacin can help your body remove toxins from your fat stores.  Not sure how much truth is behind this, but wanted to check with the community.  Has anyone ever used it for shreading off fat... assuming you are doing exercise and eating right too?

Niacin stops lipolysis.

Great for detox if you're a scientologist.  :D

yeah I tried it once ( not for a drug test just for detox ).  I took three before bed. I then woke up in the middle of the night feeling like I had a severe sun burn, and hot sweats.  Not a great feeling.  My wife took one, and her face got all flushed.  Its said to remove toxins from your body.  Just wanted to see if it really pulls stuff out of your fat cells.

I'm pretty sure the idea is that since it stops lipolysis it stops drug metabolites from being released from fat stores. It might work to a degree right before a drug test, like insulin can.

I don't see how it would remove toxins, the opposite I can see for the short window it's active after a megadose.

Stacking insulin, endo or exo, with niacin and glycerol might increase your chances of passing a drug test.

yeah i think niacin is just a quick fix for drug test...the best detox methods are usually done over a one week period and it gradually and gently removes toxins from your body

i've used the time released capsules quite a few times for different reasons dealing with new jobs etc and it allowed me to pass drug tests along with plenty of H2O and decent "clean" time b4 hand.  i also used it along with steam room, consistent cardio and saw decent results in fat loss.
