About this listen

Niacin (vitamin B3) is a small molecule made of only 14 atoms, smaller even than the simplest sugar. But this one molecule has profound effects on health: It plays a role in more than 500 reactions in the body.

Many illnesses are caused by too little niacin, and many illnesses can be cured with high doses of niacin. The authors of Niacin: The Real Story are advocates of orthomolecular (nutrition-based) medicine, supporting an approach to wellness that involves substances that naturally occur in the human body. This book makes the case for the widespread use of niacin for the prevention and treatment of health problems.

In Niacin: The Real Story, listeners will discover how to take niacin, with detailed recommendations on forms and therapeutic doses. There is plentiful, accurate information on niacin side effects and safety. Niacin can be used for arthritis, children's learning and behavioral disorders, mental illness, cardiovascular disease, and other conditions. Niacin: The Real Story is for people who want to learn more about niacin and its wonderful healing properties.

I would be glad if I could have this information long time ago, definitely many of my relatives and my on parents did not suffer from many problems if they had been in contact professionals that really help them.
This book is realistic and based in serious studies.

Fascinating book and have started taking it myself, enjoying the flushes. Too soon to say whether it will help, but optimistic after listening to this.

Really enjoyed understanding more about niacin

I’m on a long health journey recovering from dementia, depression and fatigue. For 7 years I have seen ologists in empires, been medicated into worse sickness - and yet I knew there must be a better way. This is gold dust.
Apart from the studies on Niacin it exposes the corrupt ‘science’ behind pharma, indoctrination of doctors and the medical system, and the suppression of the truth. If you too think there might be another way, then read this with an open mind. It could change your life.

Much more than just Niacin

This should be common knowledge available for all of us, but the pharmaceutical industry won’t let this happen. It’s an eye opening for me and I hope it helps anyone seeking the true. We are not deficient of drugs, we are deficient of good food and vitamins.

Amazing book

An incredible book. A review of an inexpensive supplement that can assist with cholesterol, arthritis, mental issues and so much more. A very valuable and insightful book. Getting adequate amounts of B3 as prescribed in this book can alleviate so many health conditions. Many excellent case studies and publications referred to. An absolute must read for everyone

Excellent a must read

I have read many nutritional books over years and some are more useful, more scientific than others. This book is up there in its science and importance to good health.

For example, I found out something really special about what happens in the body when we are deficient in nutrients for a sustained period.

Apparently we become deficient in a nutrient at first but when the duration or severity of the dependence is high, or when the situation of the individual is particularly stressful (e.g. a pow camp) then the deficiency becomes a dependency and can sometimes require supplementation for life.

This was shown with Canadian soldiers captured in WW2 by Japan and placed in camps for 44 months until Japan surrendered. Studies were done on these soldiers and compared to Canadian soldiers in the European campaign. The results showed they responded very well to B3 supplements and were required to take them for life. The ones that didn't had a much shorter life than there European based counterparts.

if you have any mental illness get this book, if you have blood lipid / heart problems or worries, get this book. If you want good health and are striving to find out about proper nutrition, get this book.

Don't get this book if you want a fun listen.. it's interesting but not a stimulating book. The content and importance of its conclusions are it's true value.

Hope my review helps you decide.

essential nutritional reading

reallt good and practical information here. I even prdered some Niacinimide as a result and can't wait to try it. May also suggest my clients take it, as they said all people have a deficiency, so you don't have to wait for symptoms?

excellent

The book tells the truth and if more people followed this protocol the world would be a happier and healthier world.

Honest writing.

Niacin is an interesting substance that I'm currently experimenting with -- you may find this a good reference if you're on the same path.

However, while this book contains a lot of useful information it continually refers to experiments and tests carried out on innocent animals -- and that is something I cannot support for any reason, because it's been proven to be ineffective so many times.

I may return this book for ethical reasons.

Disappointingly pro-vivisection
