In Response To: NIACIN---500 MG (GEORGE WOODS)

Niacin plays an important role in many body functions such as the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats and proteins. Niacin can cause liver damage, peptic ulcers and skin rashes if taken in excessive doses. The RDA for Niacin is 20 mg, 500 mg seems to me to be considerably excessive and could cause some serious problems. Remember, niacin is found in many of the foods we eat everyday such as many meats and vegetables. I would't take more than the recommended 20 mg. > HELLO, i have a question. i take 500 mg of niacin > daily. i understand it lower the fatty substance in > the blood. is there a negative effect of using niacin > such as damaging the kidneys or liver. further, i > stopped taking "zetia" a staintin to lower > chorlestrol (sic) because, it causes stomach pain and > other negative things to my body!...please advise > thanks!
