Pre-workout reaction

Post by Kwacky »

I took some pre-workout last night for the first time and ended up with itchy skin. Is this a reaction to the beta alanine? If so will my body get used to it?

Some of them have niacin in or nicotonic acid and that can give you what they call the flushed skin effect, I never got on with them myself, a strong black coffee always did the trick for me.

Wot he said.

Good chance it's probably the niacin....and yes, you will get used to it in time.

I sent the supplier an email and they said the same thing. I'll see how I get on with it. If I don't like I'll stop using it.

Look online for Stackers if you buy from a legitimate nutrition company take a couple before a workout it will definitely help, order some from an American siite like me and you'll have a better workout but be off your face all day lol

It'll wear off, you won't notice it before long.
Which pre-workout was it?
