interesting. thanks. much of the interest of late has been on the b3 and its variants. I like your advice to get the b complex vitamin and your suggestion as to the brands that do the best job. On thing that was not clear to me from the article was the dosage. Is there advantage to taking more than whatever is the recommended dose? (the recommended dose would come with the multivitamins.) Do you get more protection with higher dosages? How do you read that?

I would aim to get something meeting 100% of the US RDA to whatever the Upper Tolerable Limit for each B vitamin might be.

For B vitamins, there may not be an Upper Tolerable Limit determined, as most people with normal kidney function excrete them.

So if you find a massive amount, take the next smaller dose or cut the pill in half.

Each body’s need for a B vitamin may vary. The US RDA is the minimum one needs to not get a serious chronic disease—not the optimal amount needed for your body’s actual benefit.
