I have 9-10 days

[LordLemon]

OK. Here's what's up.

Today will be my last day of smoking. Now, It's pretty much up to me when to take the UA as long as it falls within between the 14th-17th. It's a DOT screen but by my choice. I'm going to try some of the dilution methods (no synthetic for me, I just cant bring myself to do it) and test myself on the 12th which will be 7 full days of not smoking.

I made a topic before about the synthetic stuff and in that, I stated I'm 6' and weight around 165. I can eat like a pig and I never gain weight. And when I say pig, I'm talking about everything from cupcakes to Burger King.

Now, like I said before, this is by choice. I don't have to attend the original start date (the place I'm testing for) and can push it back. After all, I'm paying cash out of my own pocket for all of it. Worse case possible? I flunk it, get money back and go back to college or something.

But I would rather not. So.....

Any other suggestions would be welcome. I figure this would be a good topic to update. Let's see what I can accomplish in one week. And I do a TON of shit to do around the house (drywalling, painting, raking) so working out isn't an issue.

One more thing, I smoke 3-4 bowls a day but keep in mind it's the cheapest stuff out there. I mean like, I'm reefed for 20 minutes.

I would start a daily workout regiment(cardio works the best) and pick yourself up some Metamucil. The soluble fiber will help you to excrete THCA metabolites through your colon and the exercise will help you to burn fat cells. You can buy cheap home tests strips online for practically nothing(think I got mine on Amazon... $8 for 10) and yes.. they are accurate.

Run through this for a week and test yourself at day 7 like you said. Keep us up to date and if you have any more questions.. holler. Good luck.

I've also read on a couple of sites that smoking cigs and drinking coffee speeds up metabolism. If this is true, I'm fortunate because I drink about 2 pots of coffee and smoke two packs of Marlboro a day.

OK, Day 1: Drank 32 OZ of Gatorade along with 500mg of niacin. Now, I know many claim niacin doesn't work while others say it does. I'm going with the hypothetical that it only helps clean you out. We'll see.

Also, I'll pick some Metamucil tonight or in the morning. I plan on taking long walks 1-2 times a day as well.

Those whove taken niacin before taking a U/A and passed are wrongly crediting the niacin when the real hero was the large amounts of fluids they had consumed with the niacin that allowed them to pass due to the THCA concentration in their bladder being diluted to the point where the sample registered below the cutoff thresholds of the drug screen. They wouldve passed anyway just on the fluid-loading alone and without the niacin to go with it.
Niacin does nothing to help pass a U/A. Besides, taking more niacin than the recommended daily amount of 15 mg can result in serious health consequences.

There is no product, nothing that can rid the body of THC except for time and fat-burning exercise.

Add a heavy backpack to your walks. If your walking, it will help to give your legs an extra load and make your body work harder... Thus burning more fat.

Burnttoast is absolutely correct. Niacin is a myth and as far as the coffee and cigarettes go, your sources are mistaken. Stick to what we've outlined in these posts and you'll have the best chance you can get.

Some like to claim that because it is a vasodilator that having bigger tunnels for blood to flow is tantamount to faster THC metabolite excretion. They are taking an illogical leap that has no basis in fact. Some like to cling to the fact that it speed up ones metabolism. Well so does smoking cigarettes but I don't suggest people do something that could be potentially harmful in the name of trying to get THC out of their system. You can increase your metabolism 100x more by simply doing 15 minutes of fat burning exercise.

In addition, when taken in greater than the daily recommended dose, niacin can wreak havoc on the liver and can lead to liver failure. Just because niacin is involved in fat metabolism does not mean that more equals better/faster or else we would have so many lard asses in this country and niacin would be touted as the weight loss miracle cure. It isn't nor does it do a thing to speed up THC unloading.

Dilution does not require niacin. It requires water (creatine and b2 help).

If you are trying to naturally clean yourself out, then taking the DRD dose of niacin will more than suffice. Fat burning exercise and time is the miracle cure, nothing else.

Until someone shows that niacin has a positive influence on the metabolic pathway involved with hydroxylation of THC, it will continue to just be a myth proliferated by followers of the father of Scientology and L Ron himself.

THC is excreted mostly as hydroxylated and carboxylated metabolites. Rougly 65% is excreted in feces and roughly 20% or so eliminated in the urine. The main urinary metabolite is THC-COOH glucuronide conjugate. The main feces metabolite is 11-OH-THC. The concentration of free THC-COOH and the cross-reactivity of glucuronide bound THC-COOH enable cannabinoid immunoassays to be done directly on the non hydrolyzed urine but confirmation and quantification of THC-COOH is done after alkaline hydrolysis of B-glucuronidase hydrolysis to free THC-COOH for measurement by GC/MS. There are a few good books that are quite in depth about our favorite plant, Cannabinoids in Nature and Medicine is one I have on my desk right now.

Soooo.....why is the topic on niacin stickied?

I don't disbelieve you guys, I'm just saying...
