I'd like to explain the difference between the two different forms of B3.

We have niacin and we have niacetamide.

The two big differences are this.

Niasin will give you the flush, okay, that flushing response, that basodilation response.

But niacidamide won't.

So it's a non-flush effect of B3. Other important distinction is with

niacin, you get all the lipid benefits. Okay. So you have all these great benefits with

lowering cholesterol, lowering LDL, increasing HDL, decreasing inflammation inside the artery, whereas niacinamide does not

have those benefits. So if you're trying to lower your cholesterol, niacin is the one you want to use.

Now, both of these vitamins chemically work in a similar way, especially in turning food into energy. Now, niacin is really effective for fatty liver,

not just a fatty liver, but a liver that's inflamed, a liver that is developing scar tissue,

like in cirrhosis. And so niacin is really good to remove fat from your liver.

Now, what's interesting about this B3, both niacin and niacinamide, is the amount of research

that is done on this compound. I mean, it's like, it's mind-blowing. And to me, I'm just

curious, like, why would they do all this research

on something that's like a vitamin? It's so cheap when that competes for certain drugs. I mean,

they found niacin to be a standalone effective remedy for managing your cholesterol. And doctors

used to use niacin before statins came on stage.

But if you dig it a little bit further, you're going to see quite a few articles and

internet links to the dangers of niacin.

So I want to talk about that.

You know, it's a lot of discouragement from using niacin because it could be dangerous to your liver, can create leacin. So I want to talk about that. You know, it's a lot of discouragement from using
