Niacin is a water soluble B vitamin whose main role is to serve as a precursor for two essential biochemical coenzymes, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and NAD phosphate (NADP). These two cofactors participate in virtually every aspect of the energy production and metabolic processes. Consequently, Niacin nutriture has been shown to impact many areas of human health.
NAD functions in reactions involving the degradation (catabolism) of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins to produce energy. Niacin is also critical for DNA replication and repair, and therefore plays a critical role in genetic stability. In addition, Niacin has been shown to have a number of beneficial effects on lipid and cholesterol transport, and thus is important for the maintenance of healthy serum lipid levels that are already within the healthy range. Inositol Hexanicotinate is a stable, non-flushing source of Niacin. This superior source of Niacin works to reduce the common "niacin-flush" problems associated with high doses of Niacin supplements.

Warnings
CAUTIONS AND INTERACTIONS: The Tolerable Upper Intake Level for all forms of Niacin for adults is 35 mg/day based on flushing as the critical adverse effect. The form of niacin in this product, however, is unlikely to cause a flushing response. High dose Niacin has been associated with liver inflammation. Although some reports suggest that this 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 required when using high-dose Niacin. The anti-TB drug Isoniazid may increase one's need for Niacin. If you have liver disease, ulcers (past or present), gout, gallbladder disease, or drink alcohol, do not take high-dose Niacin except on medical advice. Combining high-dose Niacin with statin drugs should not be attempted except under direct supervision of a physician. Niacin may interfere with the absorption of Tetracycline, so take at different times of the day.
If pregnant or nursing, consult healthcare practitioner before using this product.
