Yea, but.. more or less it doesn’t work well enough to really keep your cholesterol in check. And, over time, it gets harder and harder to keep at it. I used Niacin for years and it kind of worked but Prevestatin just does such a better job without as many side effects.. I just went with it.
You also have to really look out for the marketing on Niacin. The no-flush variant is useless. The same aspect that causes the burn is also what helps with the cholesterol. Lots of studies out there confirm that. They sell it because “it is Niacin” and because you can’t make health claims beyond the Niacin vitamin, they truthfully state that it prevents the flushing but they don’t have to say it renders it useless for anything that you might want to take that high a does of Niacin. You are better off with a more rational does for any Niacin needs you might have to maintain general health.
With flush Niacin if you get a flush reaction is likely you’re low on Melatonin.
