Everyone reacts differently to supps so maybe some of us will be able to tolerate caps. Like I said, the convenience factor is huge for me and I always prefer capsules/gelcaps/liqui-gels, etc. over powders.

Regardless, with all of the positive feedback posted here I have decided to give it a try. Dam* you people with your raves about this product!!!

If I like it half as much as you guys, I'm going to have another staple to add to my diet.

My pleasure psywzrd.

As for the capsules, we don't have plans for any due to the reasons listed above. It's a great idea, but it would not be as effective of a product unfortunately.

What many do is mix 3-4 scoops of Poseidon in a water bottle and sip on it throughout the day. This way you don't have to worry about constantly mixing.

I look forward to your thoughts once you've tried it...I think you'll be impressed

Down the road we will be looking into RTD Poseidon bottles, but for now, we don't have plans to flavor it. We don't want to introduce something unnatural or artificial (flavoring), to a very pure and natural formula.

When we are ready to manufacture the RTD's, we will begin to looking into flavoring them. For now, Crystal Light works great if you would like to add some taste

RTDP's(Ready To Drink Poseidon's) is a great idea.

Took my first dose this afternoon. I mixed one serving with Crystal Light lemonade (I chickened out of trying it with just water) and you couldn't even detect that anything else was in there. Drank it right down and got the tingly feeling and a noticeable niacin flush shortly thereafter. The flush wasn't bad at all and if that's as bad as it gets, I'll have no problem taking this stuff.

As an FYI, Crystal Light makes these great little packets called "On the Go" - they're single-serving packets that are super easy to pour into a narrow-mouth bottle of water. I'm going to keep them at work with my Poseidon so I can take it in the afternoon on my non-workout days.

Can't wait until I start feeling and seeing the effects from this stuff.

YEAH!
how about some POSEIDON "on-the-go" packets? that would be GREAT!

That's the same kind I use man. Really makes things convient for ya in the long run. If you get a chance check out the rasberry flavor to. It really taste good. As for the Poseidon solo, give it a try sometime. I think you'll find it's not that bad and that after a while you actually start craving it. Just mix one serving in about 10-12 oz or so, put it aside or in the fridge for about 5 mins and try it out..... good stuff.

Raspberry sounds good man - I'm all over that.

As far as pre-mixing the Poseidon and putting it in the fridge, do you know how long it will remain stable in water? Can I leave it in there for a few days? It might be nice to make a big-a$$ pitcher of it so I can just drink it whenever without having to worry about mixing it every time.

I think you'll find it really doesn't have much taste mixed with plain water IF you let it sit for 5-10 minutes before drinking. Crystal Light does make a great mixer though

Keep us informed on your progress psywzrd!

Thats exactly what I do. It will stay stable in the fridge for 2-3 days easy.

I took it with some water last night and you were right - the taste isn't that bad. I still prefer it with Crystal Light but sometimes you're just not in the mood for it.

I made a big mistake last night though by not taking in enough water with my Poseidon. That was by far the most intense niacin flush I've ever experienced - I thought my head was going to explode!

It subsided after about 15-20 minutes, but while it lasted it was more than a little uncomfortable. I won't be making that mistake again.

prld2gr8ns · 03-21-2007, 10:26 AM

Ha, it sneaks up on you sometimes man. As for the stablility, I mixed some up on friday, left for the weekend and got back late sunday drank it down and still got a slight flush. So, I'd say stability is pretty good.
