I'm looking to supplement my statin with additional support supps to help lower my ldl level, and niacin seems to be the best option here.
However, there seems to be some conflicting information out there regarding which form of niacin is beneficial for lipid profiles. Some websites say the non-flush form (inositol hexanicotinate) doesn't do jack for cholesterol, while others say it may be better than the flushing form. Can anyone shed some light on this? Since I know that straight niacin does work for this, I just started taking it, but it does make me itchy :196: If I knew that the non-flush worked just as well, I'd prefer to switch over to that.
Any info appreciated...
