Niacin is also known as Vitamin B3 or Niacinamide, it is heat stable and water soluble. It was first discovered when scientists were looking for the cause of pellagra. It is absorbed in the small intestine and excreted in the urine. The human body uses niacin in more than 50 chemical reactions. It is needed by the body to extract energy from fat, carbohydrate and protein. It is a natural cholesterol regulator, and often works as well as prescription medications for persons with mild cholesterol problems. This formula uses nicotinic acid, the form of niacin that has shown promise in lowering LDL levels of cholesterol. Like all members of the B family, niacin plays a role in energy metabolism.

Our Flush Free Niacin uses niacin from inositol hexanicotinate. Inositol hexanicotinate functions as niacin, but does not cause the flushing, tingling and itching effects common with use of standard niacin, many people find these side effects to be uncomfortable. Inositol hexanicotinate consists of niacin molecules surrounded that is bound to inositol, it is slowly meta-bolized by the body, releasing niacin over a period of time. In clinical tests, it has been found to be more effective than niacin to lower blood cholesterol levels. Our Flush Free Niacin is available in 60 count vegetarian capsules.
