Solaray Niacin 100mg, Nervous System Support, 100 Veg Capsules

After some research, I wanted to start using niacin to improve my HDL and LDL levels. I'd read that the flushing can be rough at first so I decided to start at 100mg and build once I'd become accustomed to the flushing. 100mg the first time had my face feeling like it was sunburnt for 30 minutes lol. So, I think it's safe to say this product is solid in that regard. Flushing is minimal after 4th 100mg dose so I'll be moving up incrementally.Research is pretty solid on niacin improving cholesterol numbers but needs to be taken at levels of a gram a day to get significant results. So, just need to work up to that level.

Quick delivery. Great price.

After being diagnosed with Leaky gut and Sibo I had a test done called the Nutravel test.It showed deficiencies in b3 (this), b6, and quite a few others. After taking them in high doses every day for a few weeks I noticed an obvious change to my rampant anxiety and occasional panic attacks which I had developed in previous years. This is was not the critical fix for me but it helped me get further down the road until I tried 5-htp 100mg per day. I still take this occasionally to see how my levels are.. a "flush reaction" is telling in terms of your saturation.Do a little research in to Dr Abramhoffer's research on Schizophrenics and high dose Niacin.It may also be helpful to those attempting to quit smoking.I am not a doctor and this should not be misconstrued as medical advice. Seek a good Doctor or Integrative medicine practitioner if you have any of these issues.

i give all vitamins 4 it is an unregulated business and if i think the particular brand is working for me i rate it a 4 i don't bother to rate brands that i am not pleased with or plan to re order.

Keeps the cholesterol down better than prescribed medication when combined with other stuff. For me. The doc didn't appreciate that so much, but I don't get along at all well with cholesterol drugs. Since I cannot take Vitamin B complex, for whatever reason, I used Niacin as part of a daily team with a small amount (6 mg ) of potassium gluconate and took my cholesterol down 200 points in 5 months (lowest it's been in 12 years).What can I say? It worked for me. No dizzy, fuzzy head and nausea for me. Won't guarantee it will work for anybody else, but true in my case.Note that I also cut bacon completely out of my diet. I didn't eat a lot of it or even every week, but it was a dietary change. I still eat other pork.

Works really well

Pros: not niacinamide (so this product can produce uncomfortable flushing of the skin in case that bother you [I think it's healthy to get that occasional 'flushing' of the capillaries]); Solaray has been around at least since the 80's so I'm comfortable trusting them; bottle I received has a non-GMO sticker.Neutral: has added aloe vera and a couple other food based ingredients.Cons: none

It's a supplement.

Happy about the product. I ordered 5 of them in total
