Today we’re going to cover the difference between the two forms of vitamin B3: niacin and niacinamide. Both niacin and niacinamide chemically work similarly but have different benefits. Niacin: • Gives a flushing response • Has lipid benefits • Helps lower cholesterol • Helps lower LDL • Helps increase HDL • Helps decrease inflammation in the arteries • Supports a healthy liver • May help with schizophrenia • May help with drug-induced dyskinesia Niacinamide: • Won’t cause a flush • Helps with certain skin conditions (acne, dermatitis, rosacea, and psoriasis) • Helps lower histamines • Helps reduce immune inflammatory factors • Helps decrease flaking skin • Helps reduce sebum • May help reduce inflammation • May help with arthritis • Is used for anti-aging • Is used for hyperpigmentation • May help reduce anger and anxiety Many people are discouraged from taking niacin because of potential side effects. But the dangers are rare and are typically involved in those taking very high doses over long periods and time-release niacin.

Lynne's Podcast Lynne August MD Dr. A offers her interpretations and applications of Dr. Revici’s profound research at DrRevici.com and the Revici Journal. Dr. Revici was arguably fifty to one hundred years ahead of his time in his application of quantum physics to medical sciences. As a once-aspiring physicist, this alone propelled Dr. A to Dr. Revici. As a physician, she felt compelled, and in some palpable way responsible, to understand Dr. Revici’s ability to control pain and achieve remissions in terminal cancer patients with his non-toxic “guided chemotherapy”, even many cancers that conventional therapy failed to control. Most of the time his questions and solutions were as unprecedented as they were effective. While Dr. Revici was primarily focused on cancer, Dr. A’s research and therapeutics to prevent and treat all chronic and degenerative disease can transform 21st century medicine.
