		<description>I have not tried the niacin yet for my depression and fatigue because I have been trying to research how much I should take. I am 95 lbs, 22, and I just got through nursing my 13 month old a few weeks ago. My hormones feel like they are getting back to normal but the depression and fatigue is still an issue. Doctoryourself.com has a kind of confusing explanation on how to increase your dosage. I understand adding 25mg a day and I understand you will feel a flush.. It just seems like a lot of build up to get to the suggested 3,000mg he talks about. I am reading that alot of other people on here are taking way less and it is working. Does anyone around my size have any dosage suggestions?</description>

		<description>Traditional niacin causes no liver damage. This been verified in many studies. It is perfectly safe and its dangers are promoted by the traditional medical field who know nothing about it. Some studies have shown increased liver enzymes with extended, no flush versions, but this does not necessarily  indicate longer damage. Pharmaceuticals are far more toxic. I would highly recommend the book &#039;Niacin: the real story&#039; by Abram hoffer, a true expert in the field.</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve read the post regarding niacin in high doses and liver damage, but have seen nothing to confirm it either way, so it leaves me wondering if there is a definitive answer. It was mentioned that it is the non-flush type that causes the liver damage, and I, too, remember reading something to that effect as well, but still can&#039;t be sure. 
About a year ago, I took the flush type niacin for about two or three days, but I must admit the flush scared me as I had not researched enough and began to panic, but what I recall most was how relaxed I felt during that time. I hadn&#039;t paid it much attention as my main goal was to stop drinking alcohol and I had read that it was good for helping to quit alcohol as it is getting too expensive to drink the good wines that I prefer, too many times a week! 
So now I worry that I may have a bit of paranoia thinking that perhaps my liver has been compromised already, and even though I am excited about the possibility of the niacin helping my now on-going chronic depressive state; I&#039;m now afraid to go back on the niacin for fear of real liver damage. So my plan is to take milk thistle along with the niacin. I&#039;ve read that milk thistle can detoxify the liver, and would like to take the two together: niacin and milk thistle.
Anyone out there have any experience or knowledge to share on this topic?</description>

		<description>I have read that the flush free niacin is the one that  may damage your liver. I would recommend not taking that. Otherwise taking niacin and vitamin c together seems to be working for me as far as sleeping better after less than 1 week.</description>

		<description>I am so thankful that Niacin works for anxiety and depression. I was on Zoloft  for years and found that and it caused terrible apathy. I could not get motivated to do anything, plus it caused me to make really bad choices in my life. Now I take niacin round the clock. It is such a blessing.  I ditched my lowlife buddies and signed up for a  16 units at our local college. AND NO DEPRESSION OR ANXIETY.  I am very disappointed with the medical community for keeping this from me.  I could have been so much further along in my  goals.</description>

		<description>To Jacqueline Looper - I have been taking the flush free niacin - niacinamide - for about a week (1000 mg. a day) in the hope that it will help with my depression and anxiety. I haven&#039;t noticed any effects yet, but it&#039;s early days. What I have read, though, is that the flush free niacin is not effective in helping lower cholesterol levels. This is not why ai am taking it so it&#039;s not important to me, but in your case perhaps you should do a bit more research? I intend to, as i don&#039;t know enough about it yet (and my doctor has offered no useful advice).</description>

		<description>I have been taking Niacin for about  one month.  I have definitely seen a difference in my depression and also better sleep.  I HAVE to take the flush-free Niacin.  I hope that it will continue to work.  I take Niacin to help lower my cholesterol along with my statin drug.  I plan to pass on the helpfulness of Niacin to my friends and family who seem not to be able to quit smoking and social drinking excessively.  Thank you for publishing these helpful articles.</description>
