Re: niacin ended my panic attacks

Thanks for sharing Lilywhite :-)

Niacin helped my anxiety. (caused either by adrenal fatigue, hypothyroid, mercury or candida or abit of all imabalances! )

I only ever took one massive dose of 750mg, flushed like hell all over my body (what an experience! Sunburn anyone?! lol) but the next day i felt a shift in my anxiety - which, at the time was ragggggginnnnng. I felt so confident i was prepared to socialise hahaa..

Because of the severe flushing effects i didn't do it again for a while. The next time i just removed some of the niacin from the capsule, dabbed abit on the underside of my tongue - and still flushed.

I'll have to try to do it reallllly slowly - take small doses and build it up.

I have wondered if the non-flushing niacin works equally aswell for anxiety? Non-flush doesn't have the good cholesterol boosting benefits that the full flush sort does...but not sure if that 'component' of niacin is the very stuff which helps anxiety?
