Larry and John,
I've started to do some reading on niacinamide and so far I'm confused by the nomenclature. Which one of these am I supposed to take and why?
nicotianmide
NAD (ß-Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide)
niacinamide
nicotinic acid
The ingredient list for the product shown at the following web-page link leads me to believe that niacinamide is the same as nicotinic acid:

If that's the case, then I didn't lie in my previous post when I stated that I took 500 mg of niacinamide because, as chance would have it, my wife's "niacin" is nicotinic acid.
Thank you very much for you help.

P.S. I took 2.5 mg of Enada NADH a few hours ago and my depression seems to be lifting. Who knows. Time will tell.
