I have high blood pressure (14x/9x) and low HDL cholesterol (3x) levels. I take a multivitamin. I am thinking of taking additional Niacin to help.
Is anyone taking a Niacin supplement? If so, how much? How bad is the flushing? Did it help with BP? How about cholesterol? Any other side effects?
The multivitamin has 20mg I think. I have a B-complex supplement that as 100mg. I am thinking of starting with that one. I also have a niacin one with 200mg but I am hesitant to do that much.
Thanks in advance!
PS. Yes I know I should be exercising. I am starting....soon...
