Steve and Dave,
I take 3 grams daily of Slo-Niacin becuse I won't take statins. Cn't
stand the flush of regular Niacin. My doc told me it would drop the
cholesterol. Where did you get your data?

My understanding is that the no-flush niacin does not lower
cholesterol. It does however help with Alzheimer's if taken in large
enough doses.

The no-flush type is recommended for lowering cholesterol for those
that have a hard time accepting the flush.
The real stuff is also a good way to increase circulation as well as
the cholesterol lowering which the slow release doesn't do.

I'm curious Jose,
I've been researching th differences in the Niacin forms. What
benefits can you get from the Niacin bound to Inositol? And so far
what you've said lines up with the reading I've been doing. I just
don't know why the Niacin/Inositol would be recommended by a doctor
instead of regular Niacin. For instance it's a recommended Niacin type
in the Iodine Protocol. The literature says it doesn't have the same
effect but then it frustrates the devil out of me because it won't say
what the differences are or what effects it actually has that are
beneficial. Do you know? I'd be grateful for clearing up of the
muddled information I've found.
