dropped it for a while. decided to restart @ 4grams/daily, all at once, in the AM, with food.
I think...I didn't quite appreciate the wonders of B3 for agitation, obsessive "stuff," and...general well-being, basically. I'm calmer, but not sedated or even tranquilized, just....
better able to handle what comes my way, I guess. And the obsessive weirdness is less of a problem, too.
I should note that I do a complete Orthomolecular protocol. The OM people say one should consume -at least- as much C as B3 (whatever form), plus b-50 or b-100s per day. I take 2 b-100s (time release) daily, plus 12 grams vitamin C.
just thought I'd share. Niacinamide doses in OM usually max out around 6 grams/daily, because nausea becomes an issue above that level. I've never taken niacin. Flush free niacin (inositol hexanicotinate) didn't seem as effective as niacinamide.

Have you ever tried nicotinamide riboside?

no...is it better? safer? still effective for the anxiety, etc.?
i don't know anything about it, is basically what I'm saying, but I'm curious.

I thought you might have tried nicotinamide ribosice, since it's all the rage these days. It looks like it might have anti-aging effects. And it looks like it might be a good idea for all nursing mothers to take it.

I haven't tried it, no. I might? I use the B3 for anxiety and stress, plus its a standard part of Orthomolecular protocols.

Niacineamide makes me incredibly depressed after one week of taking.
