What Are The Benefits Of Taking No Flush Niacin?
No flush niacin has been associated with maintaining heart and blood vessel health, and supporting a healthy metabolism.
Nicain (vitamin B3) is a coenzyme that is called “B3” because it was the third B vitamin to be discovered. Niacin has many benefits, among others to help metabolize the foods you eat and promote healthy cellular energy production. No-Flush Niacin can allow true niacin activity without the characteristic niacin flush.
How Life Extension No Flush Niacin Works
Niacin (vitamin B3) is an essential nutrient with important functions for maintaining cardiovascular, neurological and overall health.
Niacin supplements containing nicotinic acid can cause uncomfortable flushing though. The special form of niacin used in No Flush Niacin, inositol hexanicotinate, can help deliver the niacin in a way that it doesn't cause the flushing many people experience.
The science behind Life Extension No Flush Niacin 640mg Capsules:
How inositol hexanicotinate works
No Flush Niacin contains inositol hexanicotinate, a special form of niacin. Inositol hexanicotinate consists of six molecules of niacin chemically linked to an inositol molecule. Some of the ingested inositol hexanicotinate is hydrolyzed in the body to slowly release free niacin and inositol. (1,2)
However, because much of it remains intact in the body, it is thought that inositol hexanicotinate may exert direct effects in addition to those of its constituent inositol and niacin fractions, without causing the characteristic niacin flush. (2)
