    Anti-serotonin, Pro-dopamine Drug Approved For Psychosis And Bipolar Disease

    Niacinamide Is Anti-estrogenic

    Yet another strong point for niacinamide. I am beginning to wonder if there is any condition or biomarker of disease that niacinamide cannot affect. Peat has written many times about the sirtuin genes and their promoter resveratrol. While there is already quite a bit of evidence that SIRT1...

While pregnenolone sulfate was not antagonistic to 5-HT3, taking pregnenolone metabolizes mostly into progesterone and allopregnanolone. So, it seems like a...

    Niacinamide Is Both A Serotonin And Tryptophan Antagonist
