Poseidon Questions

I have three quick questions for the Nimbus Nutrition guys.

1) I had a tub of poseidon that I was using during a designer cycle about 3 months ago. Only used about half, sealed the container up tight. Put it in a dry, even temperature room and walked away. Just opened it back up two days ago to give it a second go, and the poseidon mixture was brown/red and rock solid. So I had to throw the tub out. I was just curious what you guys think happened? Im pretty sure no moisture got in, it almost seems like something in the poseidon oxidized?

2) I'm very sensitive to the Niacin in the poseidon. In fact if I dose the recommended one serving I get a pretty intense flush. I tried two doses at once and my entire upper body from chest up was beat red and I felt like I was on fire. So from here on out I've been dosing my serving of poseidon with my BCAAs that I sip during my 1.5 hour workout. I STILL get a slight Niacin flush. Will this flush decrease as I use poseidon for longer periods of time?

3) I dosed my poseidon this morning in my green tea...but I dosed it into hot green tea. Talk about a reaction...it fizzed and bubbled and generally protested the combination :rofl: . Did I lose something by dosing it into a hot liquid? I didnt get the normal niacin flush this morning so I felt like I lost something in the process?

Thanks guys.

1. Even though the container was still sealed tight, some moisture could leak in causing the brown apperance. 3 months is a long time for the product to sit and collect moisture, so the time frame could have contributed to the amount of color disstortion you where seeing, the product should still be effective though. The new moisture absorbant packs contain in the new run of Poseidon will rememdy the problem.

2. The longer you use Poseidon the lesser the flush becomes. Try extra dilution on your next dose of Poseidon and BCAA's should help the flushing out even more.

3. Heat causes a plethora of different effects on all compounds. Water-soluble vitamins are very unstable and easily destroyed in the presence of high temperature, and since Poseidon is all water soluble vitamins loss did probably occur. Next time just dose the Poseidon seperate from your green tea, or just make a cold green tea mixture... should be fine then.

I used to get same thing red flush but got used to it by second week and I only use it 3 times a week pre workout and during workout so comes out to 6 servings a week.
More water you drink with it less flush you get.
You might want to go less than the scoop first few dosages till you get used to the Niacin. I feel the co should say that so some dont get "scared" as its great pre workout and during ESP in the summer.

I've worked up to 10g in with my Excell that I drink pre and during my workout and the flush is nearly completely gone. I've also started dosing 5g every morning in my, now cold, green tea.:cheers:

It seems like Poseidon will join my staple group, I'll probably have to get a 900g container within a couple of weeks.

Yea I like it noticed just better workout . Flush is initially a bit "disturbing" but it goes away and I drink it 60 minutes pre workout on empty stomach with my stack after 30 minutes flush is gone.

Than I drink it while training but no flush with second dose.
 
1 serving first thing in the AM, then another serving in each of my water bottles for the cardio and then another serving after lunch and one more before bed.

Stuff is TRULY amazing!
