- sex drive, niacin and CFiDS and ...

[Guest guest]

I came down with CFIDS while taking 4 to 6 grams a day of slo-niacin

for barely high cholesterol prescribed by an incompetent primary

care doctor.

If you do a search on " toxicology of slo-niacin " you will find an

article that states that people can get chronic fatigue from it.

Clinically proven.

I was doing well before the niacin. I had a very high sex drive

then, high energy, and a brain that

would never get fog. Now I relapse after sex, energy is low, and

fog got better (with recuperation).

anyone know more about Cheneys theory on niacin and CFIDS?
