so I’ve used niacinamide on and off for the last couple of years. Typically in doses of 500mg at a time (due to the capsules coming in that amount), it never really agreed with me. I’d take it but wouldn’t see any benefit.....
After listening to Chris Masterjohn discuss niacin/amide/ nicotinimide riboside in one of his YouTube videos, i clued in to the fact that the dosage I was taking was counter productive. I also recalled Masterjohn saying that only about 40mg per hour can be absorbed into the blood stream so I figured why not aim for smaller doses, more frequently throughout the day.
For the last two or so weeks, I’ve been opening up the capsule and adding a bit to water throughout the day. In total, the 500mg capsule might last me two days but the energy and feeling I get from it is quite impressive. Shortly after ingestion, I notice my body temperature rises substantially almost to the point of a light sweating for about 5 minutes. After the water, I follow up with some orange juice.
Other thing to note is my libido is off the charts. Like I’m in my teens again.... I’m taking other things as well so I won’t attribute it solely to niacinamide (limonene, caffeine, and mag malate to name a couple) but am really happy with the direction I am going in. Energy is best it’s been in a long time.
For those not getting good results from niacinamide, maybe try reducing the dosage but using it more frequently. Might be helpful.
Just thought I’d share
