Niacin, What Should People Know About This Medication? - Dr. Lyle

[ycmgh]

niacin is NOT a drug.

[666katch]

It helps with bi polar and all levels of depressions too!

[ByGraceIGo]

@madmanatsea only the non flushing time released niacin in large doses over a period of time can possibly hurt the liver. Anything in too much excess can be harmful. Even water, it can wash all the sodium and calcium out of your cells and bam you're dead.

[ByGraceIGo]

@supernaturallover67, B3 is not stored in the body and it MUST come from food as the other b vitamins.

[porkeebear]

Nicotinic acid form of Niacin helps to raise HDL and lower Triglycerides. I hope he's right!

[madmanatsea]

@porkeebear

NIACIN raises HDL better than it lowers ldl, and this is great because just 2% of heart attacks happen to those with high HDL. The only drawback with NIACIN is that I have found over the past 3 or more years of taking it is that YOU HAVE TO WALK OR RISK COMING DOWN WITH DIABETES. And this is no joke and can be confirmed like I did by buying one of those glucose meters and pricking myself no less than 30 times one day to see what happens to my blood before and after niacin,etc

[LollyGaggin1106]

I'm 52, have eaten fast food all my life, had a fasting triglyceride level of 427, cholesterol of 325. I've been taking 2,000mg of niacin for about 4 months, along with 3 fish oil caps and 1 daily 81mg ASA. I went for a calcium cardiac scan yesterday and 3 of 4 arteries were completely plaque free. The remaining artery had a score of 25.3. I couldn't believe my numbers were so low. Anything less than 100 is considered minimal plaque. I'm sticking with the niacin. I don't even flush anymore.

[porkeebear]

@LollyGaggin1106, what kind and brand of niacin are you taking?

[madmanatsea]

@LollyGaggin1106

YOU BETTER GET A TREADMILL OR DO CIRCLES AROUND YOUR CAR AT LEAST 30 MINUTES A DAY! If you don't walk and walk while on NIACIN, I GUARANTEE you will come down with diabetes........Buy a blood glucose monitor and needles from walmart or some other place AND TEST BLOOD sugar before Niacin, then when you feel warm or a little red after taking it. You will see it go from near 110 to above 160 in minutes after injesting say 500mg of Niacin, and this is WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW!

[proSpiritofTruth]

is grossly such that an obvious discrimintation with little or no benefit of the doubt is given to'Let thy food be thy medicine' proponents,and a'blind eye' is turned to the grossly unnacceptable level or 'medical misadvantures' per year of conventional anti proponents of 'Let thy food be thy medicine'which should make them public enemy number one if they are the cause of the greatest number of fatal accidents per year in America. And they legislate against the only people who uphold the H/oath?

[proSpiritofTruth]

see a naturopath lose his credentials or even his personal liberty with jail terms, whereas even the prestigious AMA freely admits to around a third of the Nexus ten year study findings on the number of 'allopathic' deaths by medical misadventure over a ten year period which was 7.5 million patients in ten years in America, and that is only deaths by medical misadventure. The AMAs findings were around 250,000 per year and they even listed the nature of the deaths. So the ratio of favouratism to

[proSpiritofTruth]

in the case of the contemporary trend of 'allopathic' medcine to suddenly recognize the extremely toxic effects of heavy metals such as mercury, even to outlawing in New Zealand recently the mercury amalgum fillings they were absolutely refusing to condemn up to that point, not unlike their refusal to admit to the link between tobacco smoking and cancer, diabetes and so forth until all of a sudden in the last couple of decades or so. Just to say that one can cure cancer, even if it is true, can

[proSpiritofTruth]

'allopathic' and 'naturopathic' medcine. The contention is that while the allopathic proponents profess Hypocrates to the degree that they vehemently oppose, especially through legislation, the use of food as a medcine, the naturopaths are persecuted and unlawfully legislated against for extolling Hypoccrates. Just like the meaningful use of the term gay, is now 'homosexual' so also the meaningful use of the term 'drug' is also either synthesized, highly concentrated or even genetically modified

[proSpiritofTruth]

their term until it be seen that the looser the definition the less power it has as an enforceable definition, so that a balance is needed in order for an apporpriate useable definition as the FDA are falsely claiming they are already doing with this very innappropriate, unuseable, misleading definition whci they use in their laws. Firstly the boundaries between 'medicine' and 'drug' and 'food' need to be laid out and matched consistently such as to not disguise the point of contention between

[proSpiritofTruth]

To be fair to the good doctor, the FDA and even Wikipedia allow a very erroneously loose definition of the term 'drug' so that it will include food, which is ironic, for the 'allopathic' 'powers that be' insist on all GP's swearing the Hyppocratic oath which soon becomes the hypocritic oath to the degree that they oppose with all of their might (in most cases) the most foundational tenet of Hyppocrates which is, "Let they food be thy medicine." The FDA can be taken to task very easily by appling

[SupernaturalLover67]

wtf kind of doctor is this? niacin is not a fucking drug, it's a vitamine.

moron

[madmanatsea]

@SupernaturalLover67

It is a vitamin, but in high doses I consider it a drug because I know it can mess with my liver......and I have more supplements in my house than walmart so I believe in nutrition more than drugs. I have used supplements and garlic to get rid of my Proctitis. Go to wikipedia and look at HUMIRA molecule to see all the SULFUR, and Garlic is SULFUR so it is great for the GI tract. I Would bet MSM-Mesthylsulfonylmethane-is probably better for DIVERTICULITIS or proctitis!

[SupernaturalLover67]

@madmanatsea Cool, but that doesn't change the fact that it is a vitamine, for it is naturally produced by your body.

[MrRemoderi]

Questions guys : how many milligrams a day is effective in order to reduce cholesterol ? Does slow release is better ?

[booiiboot]

LOL A DRUG? WHAT A DUMBASS DOCTOR.

[nathanielringdahl]

It's not a drug... It's a vitamin

[mrsblue82]

i love the flushing, its strange but u get addicted to the flushing it hurts but feels good at the same time. ive had great results with lab work proving it.

[MrBillhouston]

Niacin is a vitamin, Doc, regardless of the dosage level. Let's just call it what it is, OK?

[TheDeathClick]

ya Niacin is a vitamin!

[KRSchannel]

[CtrlAltDltYou]
