Poseidon For My Dad And His Heart

TheMyth

RADIATE LOVER
Hey Workin, I have a question. I have been reading alot about Poseidon and the Niacin Flush, which made me want to research niacin more and I came across a website that said this:

Niacin has the property of causing the small blood vessels to increase in size. These are the capillaries. Now, capillaries are often so small that the blood cells pass through them in single file. It is the capillaries that take care of the vast majority of all the cells in the body. You have large arteries near the heart, and they get smaller and smaller as they extend from the heart. But, at the end of every well-sized artery is a very large network of capillaries.

They all start from the heart -- but at the end of the line they are tiny, tiny capillaries.

Now they say Niacin is good for lowering cholesterol, but they don't talk about how it would affect someone who has already had a heart attack. I have been wanting to buy Poseidon for my dad who had a Triple Bypass 3 years ago from his heart attack, but have become worried that this might not be good for his heart if he experienced one of these flushes. He takes Lipitor, but I wanted to get him Poseidon to see how well it works for him. What I wanted to know is if Poseidon would be benificial or detrimental to his health, mainly heart health. Maybe you could look into that for me Workin? Let me know what you think.
 
The research backing niacin with CAD has been positive, and it's use in combination with statin therapy is pretty much common place now.... ever heard of Niacor.

Recently there have been some research into niacin and it's possible role in decrease inflammatory markers which as many people know is beginning to be seen as risk factors for CAD incidents..... so seeing as how it's much researched in the field of heart disease and has many postive correlation to it I would say that it would indeed be beneficial. As always I would recommend you talk to your doctor about this before making any decision, but IMO it looks like it would be very good.

Hello TheMyth, Thanks for your interest in Poseidon. As prld2gr8ns stated, and from all the research I've seen, Poseidon would be very beneficial to your Father. We are unable to give medical advice, and obviously would refer your Father to your family physician before starting Poseidon. That said, IMHO, if it were my Father, I would have him taking Poseidon without question.

Should your Dad decide to try it, have him start at 1/2 the dose for the first few days. Also, be sure he is drinking at least 10 oz of water with every serving of Poseidon.

I hope this helps. Let us know what you decide. :)

Cool, thank you, I will go get some for him. I was just worried because hes almost 60 now and I didn't want this stuff blowing out all his capilarries or his heart.
 
Let us know how that works for you myth, and be sure to warn him about the flush(I'm pretty sure you'd do that anyway).
