Why Ordinary Niacin Therapy
Did Not Become Popular

Despite its effectiveness in lowering cholesterol and triglycerides levels and the additional benefits to heart and blood vessel health, using niacin as a natural way to bring down cholesterol levels never became popular.

The reason for the lack of popularity is that high doses of niacin cause something called a "niacin flush."

Niacin (also called nicotinic acid) is vitamin B-3, one of the water-soluble B-complex vitamins. Niacin causes the capillaries (small blood vessels) in your body to get wider (bigger).

(NOTE: Do not confuse niacin with another form of vitamin B-3 called niacinamide or nicotinamide, which does not cause flushing and does not lower cholesterol levels.)

The expanded capillaries allow a higher volume of blood to flow through to the cells of the body. The increased blood flow causes a reddening of the skin, a sensation of warmth (hot flash), and is often accompanied by itching.

The "flush" usually occurs within 10 to 30 minutes of consuming the niacin and normally appears on the surface of the chest, arms, legs, neck and face. The "flush" can last for 10 to 60 minutes. Like blushing, the coloration can be from a slight pink to bright red.

The increased blood flow also allows toxins to be eliminated from those areas of the body, and that is what causes the itching, which can be mild or intense.

This "niacin flush" is sufficiently annoying and uncomfortable that most people were unwilling to experience it, even though it is completely harmless.

What this means, is that most people using the WSN® Targeted Niacin Formula will not experience any niacin flushing.  For the few that do, the flushing will be mild and should no longer appear after a week or so of taking the product.
