| Involvement of Niacin, an essential B vitamin, in cellular energy production
means that it is essential for healthy cardiovascular function, nervous system
function, and immune function. Niacin nutritionally supports cholesterol levels
already within the normal range. Schiff uses Inositol Hexanicotinate for a niacin
source (nicotinate is a synonym for niacin), which lets enzymes in your body slowly
release niacin to avoid the flushing response. Niacin in doses over 50 mg can
cause flushing - red and itchy face and neck - when ingested in a non-time release
form.
Niacin is available in time-release tablets, and these products have
less flushing reaction. These products release niacin slowly throughout the
intestinal tract, which still presents the liver with a large niacin load. Simple,
time-released niacin products have been associated with elevated liver enzymes
in some users.
The niacin used in Schiff Flush Free Niacin is Inositol Hexanicotinate,
a different kind of time-release niacin. Inositol hexanicotinate is absorbed
by the body, and inside of tissues, enzymes normally present in all cells slowly
release niacin from the inositol. This allows niacin from inositol hexanicotinate
to avoid flushing and provide what the cells really want - niacin in the right
place at the right time in the right amounts. Niacinamide, another form of Vitamin
B3 commonly used in dietary supplements and found in foods, does not cause flushing
at any dose, but also does not have the cardiovascular health effects that niacin
has. Niacin is involved in numerous reactions inside of cells that convert food
into cellular energy. Niacin helps operate enzymes that transport and break
down fats, carbohydrates, proteins and other molecules formed from food. A normal
function of niacin is to help remove fats (triglycerides) from tissues and the
bloodstream.
