Re: Niacitol (no-flush niacin)

[Guest guest]

Hi Suzanne,

No Flush Niacin is pretty common, can buy it at

Walmart or any drugstore. Shouldn't have to pay that

much for it. Can get it from TwinLab, free of

additives, chemicals, and metals. Here's a link:

Niacinamide is a no flush niacion which is very inexpensive.

Niacinamide can be taken in large doses of long periods of time

without problems.

Inositol Hexaniacinate, on the other hand, is a no-flush niacin which

is not good to take in large doses for protacted periods of time. I

have no idea of the safety of the type of no-flush niacin you mention.

" A more dangerous effect of niacin is liver inflammation. Although

some reports suggest that it occurs most commonly with slow-release

niacin, it can occur with any type of niacin when taken at a daily

dose of more than 500 mg (usually 3 g or more). Regular blood tests to

evaluate liver function are therefore mandatory when using high-dose

niacin (or niacinamide or inositol hexaniacinate). This reaction

almost always goes away when niacin is stopped. Note: Contrary to

claims on some manufacturer's websites, there is no reliable evidence

that inositol hexaniacinate is safer than ordinary niacin. "

It was on this list, several years ago that it was pointed out that

niacinamide is safer to take in large doses for long periods of time.

I no longer have those posts or ther URLs to back the assertion up.

No time to scour thru tens of thousands of posts in the archive to

look.

I have this liver inflammation from too much

Niacinimide going on right now and it hurts like heck.

For two months I've been taking Niacinimide in GABA

with Inositol that I've been taking 3 times a day,

plus taking a sublingual B Complex daily.

Altogether the amounts in each supplement are:

Niacinimide in the B Complex sublingual: 20 mg.

Niacinimide in the GABA: 400 mg. (3x day)

Inositol in the GABA: 1200 mg. (same, 3x day)

So the total for each day has been:

1220 mg. Niaminicide per day,

3600 mg. of Inositol per day.

After two months of this, I now have the kind of pain

in the liver that is extremely uncomfortable. If I

were in labor I'd be grabbing the nurse and yelling

for pain meds.

One good thing that has come from it is that my

Hashimoto's antibodies are nil. None. Down from 179

(range 0-150) in August to ZERO as of Tuesday. So that

worked anyway.

Now it's time to take a break from it though. OUCH!!!!
