Re: Niacin experience

Then why, after a month on Niacinamide, then changing over to Nicotinic acid ( the real Niacin ), do you still get the flush? Because Niacinamide is not as good as Nicain and tests prove it.

Niacin is transported across the capillary walls faster and across the cell membranes faster. Yes, once it is inside of the cells, it is easily and reversibly converted to Niacinamide, but the Niacin is faster, more efficient, and produces over-all better results.

Your everyday cheap off-the-store-shelf vitamins have Niacinamide as they are produced by your Medico Mafia.

Again, the study in which almost 8000 patients took 3000 mg of niacin daily for 10 years showed a 90 percent reduction in mortality. The expected mortality was 60 patients per year from heart attacks alone while the actual was 6 per year from all causes! Sorry, Niacinamide will NOT produce the same results. The most astounding result was from a followup study that was done on the same group 10 years after the initial study ended. In the followup study, it was found that the mortality rate was still reduced by 90 percent 10 years after the study was done.

Niacinamide will produce a 15 percent reduction in mortality while Niacin will produce a 90 percent reduction in mortality.

Hmmm, mathematics, 15 percent? 90 percent? 15 percent? 90 percent?
