Vitamin B3 Niacin/Nicotinic Acid (Flush Effect) 50mg, Magnesium Stearate Free & No Nasty Additives, Made in Wales … (90 Capsules)

I have only taken this Niacin a few times, the first couple of times i took this it didn't work, no flush effect. Then I took it after a prolonged fast, and I got the flush, I felt a gentle tingle on my face, then the heat kicked in, my face was red. The flush then expanded and my skin felt itchy.Review Update:This is a fantastic product, Flush Niacin has so many health benefits, and the flush effect is strong and reliable.

Quality product wow what a flush must recommend.

Niacin the flushing type (this one) is better then non-flushing type. The flush is the helpful part, boosts circulation. I combine it with the Taoist soap for hair, to help boost my hair growth. But it helps all kinds of things related to circulation. Start low dose, and increase dose very slowly, every 7 days. Like 50mg first week, 100mg second week, 200mg 3rd week and so on - till you reach 500mg a day (be aware of the flush), then buy the bigger capsule size - taking this long term helps all kinds of things.buy the niacin book on amazon - has all the studies and experiments done on it - but don't go higher then 500mg. More is not always better.

Good quality easy to swallow supplement. Good flush effect.

These are not lovely things to take: they will produce a "flush", meaning your skin will feel like it's burning up and may also start to itch. The effect can last maybe 10 or 15 minutes.However: I had high cholesterol and high triglyceride levels. I was put on statins. Those brought my cholesterol levels back into normal range, but they left my triglyceride levels untouched. The doctor recommended more exercise, less alcohol, more fatty fish.Well, instead I took one of these a day for about a month and went back to the doctor get new triglyceride readings taken: my levels had plunged from over 6 to 1.2, which is perfectly normal. The increased exercise and alcohol reduction remains planned, but not imminent!I've been taking one of these a day ever since. They did for me what I was advised could only be achieved by "lifestyle changes". As I say, they are not the nicest to take, but I recommend them to anyone concerned with persistently bad blood fat levels -though, of course, I'm not a doctor and this isn't medical advice!

Small pills, very easy to swallow.Depending on whether you can take them on a full or empty stomach your skin will start flushing red.

Have taken for a, while but not really feeling any benifits

I used to buy nicotinic acid from H&B but they stopped selling it and replaced it with the non flushing nicotinamide. So for years I couldn't find any. I bough this and it does cause the flush, not every time though. I have been taking them for two weeks in the morning and twice I have had the flush effect. I know why. Both days I've skipped breakfast because I wasn't hungry. This form of B3 must enter the bloodstream faster on an empty stomach. When it first happened I was driving to the woods to go for a walk and my arms and ears started tingling. It had been so long since I felt the sensation that I thought something was wrong lol. Then my arms felt pleasantly warm and they went slightly red in places, it's a lovely feeling. It is what it says it is. Delivering more oxygen rich blood to your skin.
