Yeaho Steve, that's one of the first articles I
read, and I continued digging. No one seems to be
able to pin down exactly what the Inositol type is
good for. So why is it marketed as Niacin? And
why would that specific one be recommended over
another form. That's what Im trying to find out.
There must be a reason for it. But I can't find
anything to give me a clear reason to use it
instead of regular ol' Niacin.

Slo-Niacin is not no-flush niacin. It is a timed release version of
regular niacin and does reduce cholesterol. Regarding no-flush niacin

“In summary, the paucity of data as well as the limitations in the
available data make it difficult to assess the true benefit of inositol
hexaniacinate in the setting of dyslipidemia. The very limited data
available suggest that inositol hexaniacinate may not be effective for
the management of dyslipidemia at lower doses, and doses of > 2400
mg/day may be necessary to provide any added benefit for dyslipidemia
management. Even at high doses the true value of inositol hexaniacinate
is far from established. Finally, the safety profile of inositol
hexaniacinate is not well understood for there are no reports in the
literature systematically evaluating its adverse effect profile.”

Steve and Dave,
I take 3 grams daily of Slo-Niacin becuse I won't take statins. Cn't
stand the flush of regular Niacin. My doc told me it would drop the
cholesterol. Where did you get your data?

My understanding is that the no-flush niacin does not lower cholesterol.
It does however help with Alzheimer’s if taken in large enough doses.

The no-flush type is recommended for lowering cholesterol for those that
have a hard time accepting the flush.
The real stuff is also a good way to increase circulation as well as
the cholesterol lowering which the slow release doesn't do.

I'm curious Jose,
I've been researching th differences in the Niacin forms. What benefits
can you get from the Niacin bound to Inositol? And so far what you've
said lines up with the reading I've been doing. I just don't know why
the Niacin/Inositol would be recommended by a doctor instead of regular
Niacin. For instance it's a recommended Niacin type in the Iodine
Protocol. The literature says it doesn't have the same effect but then
it frustrates the devil out of me because it won't say what the
differences are or what effects it actually has that are beneficial. Do
you know? I'd be grateful for clearing up of the muddled information
I've found.
