Annie, Here are what I consider good reasons. They are for the no-flush version of B-3.

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.
