I take niacin for cholesterol, 1g 2x day, but it also reduces blood
pressure. The only negative is occasional "flush" (red skin, sometimes
prickling - take it after food). I found out early on that niacin listed
as "no flush" or "slow release" do not help the cholesterol levels.
Might be worth talking to your doc about that.


My doctor told be to take niacin for cholesterol too. So far I haven't
been able to take as much (I take 1g on even days and 750mg on odd days).

Yep, this is theee worst time of the year for overeating. Started already - both bags of goodies for the treat or treaters are gone..... First cool day and the wife makes her infamous potato salad. I don't know why they call it "salad".... Anyway, most of the first batch was et up before the stove had cooled off.
