> ever tried niacinamide?
Christ_empowered,
I'm not sure if you're asking me or Kilo8, but yes, I've taken niacinamide and noticed initial benefits similar to those I experienced when starting the nicotinic acid version of niacin. Unfortunately, I don't recall noticing long-term benefits from taking niacinamide, but then again, I don't think that I've tried dosing higher than 1 or 2 g. Also, although I think I might have noticed some discomfort when I discontinued niacinamide, I don't recall the discontinuation effects of niacinamide as being as bad as those that I've experienced with even reducing my dose of the nicotinic acid version of niacin. For whatever reason, even reducing my nicotinic acid dose by 25 mg seems to worsen my concentration and energy pretty badly for the first 24 hours or so after I lower the dose.
I do recall you (C_e) saying in your posts about your orthomolecular regimen that you take niacinamide. If you don't mind me asking, how much are you taking at present? Do you think that high doses offer benefits that lower doses don't?
