Niacin No-Flush is inositol hexanicotinate, a form of the B vitamin niacin bound to the B-vitamin-like simple polyol inositol. Standard varieties of niacin cause unpleasant side effects such as itchy, burning skin - the niacin “flush”. Standard niacin may also harm the liver. Inositol hexanicotinate delivers niacin to the bloodstream slowly, eliminating the niacin “flush,” and has not been associated with impaired liver function or the other side effects of conventional or “slow-release” niacin. The main benefits of Niacin supplementation are:
- Improves Cardiovascular health.
- Lowers high cholesterol.
- Improves HDL levels.
- Cancer prevention.
- Diabetes management.
- Management of HIV/AIDS.
- Improves Lipoprotein(a) profile.
