Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I took flush-free niacin for almost two years before I learned that there is a reason doctors won't recommend it -- it doesn't work. The chemical composition of flush-free niacin is not the same as the type that doctors recommend to raise HDL and lower LDL. It is unfortunately simply a gimick - at least in that regard. The brand Slo Niacin is the right stuff, but is released gradually into your system, hopefully to reduce the flushing. It may also help to work into it gradually by taking the lowest dosage for a while and by taking it just before bedtime. Supposedly, taking an aspirin 30 min. before the niacin also reduces the flushing for some people. As I understand it, there are many benefits to taking niacin (e.g., it's one of the few non-prescription things you can do to raise HDL) but it is difficult to tolerate. Sadly, flush-free niacin is not much more than a placebo.
