you can also just pop a 400mg Niacin capsule... Niacin will quickly dialate all your capilaries bringing lots of blood to your face and making you look like a lobster. I just want to warn anyone who is thinking of trying this that 400 mg is not the place to start with niacin. The flushing will be extremely intense at that level and you will probably either think you are dying or wish you were. Try 50 or 100 mg to start with. OOPS! I goofed! Sorry about that, hope nobody tried that high a dose..
I started taking some extra vitamins a while back, and the Niacin dose was 150mg, which gave me a barely noticable tingling sensation in my face, but did not cause my face to change color. I was previously taking only Theragran-M.
