Niacin -- The Flushing Vitamin
Niacin is also called Vitamin B3. There is niacin in both the Life Glow Plus and the Super Life Glow formulas.
You you take niacin in an amount significantly larger than you have been taking in the past few days you are likely to experience a "flush," or a reddening of the skin and an itchy feeling. Niacin is a particularly important nutrient for improving the health of the heart and for improving blood circulation. The subject of "niacin" is one of the most popular for people visiting this web site. There is probably more information about niacin here than any other web site in the world. Besides all the links from THIS page, take a look, also, at this extremely popular page FAQ, among the FAQ -- Frequently Asked Questions.
When you get that "flush" that means that the small blood vessels in your body are being expanded in size because of the niacin. Many of your small blood vessels, called "capillaries" are so small that blood cells can go through them only in single file. Sometimes, in fact, that small passageway is clogged and blood doesn't get through at all.
While the large organs of the body all have blood supplied from large arteries, a great deal of your body, particularly the parts near the surface (skin and surface areas) get their ONLY supply of blood (therefore also of oxygen and food!) from these small capillaries. So, if those capillaries are not carrying the blood, then those parts of the body are not getting nourishment and oxygen.
The niacin causes these small capillaries to get larger -- so they might be able to carry two or three blood cells at the same time. This is a tremendous increase in blood flow.
You experience this as a reddening of the skin -- simply because there is more blood close to the surface of the body. As this blood flows in these areas the cells of the small capillaries will also be getting rid of their waste products, and often they produce "histamine" as part of that process. That histamine is another natural substance produced by every cell in the body -- when the cell is under attack, or is getting rid of toxins.
So, histamine causes an "itchy" feeling.
When you take Life Glow Plus or Super Life Glow for the first time you are probably going to have that "niacin flush" and feel itchy and have red skin.
Depending on when and what you ate, the sensation could last for 10 minutes or as long as an hour.
It is not harmful or dangerous. Some people worry about it, but it is actually a sign of very healthy cleansing and improved blood flow.
Once you have had the niacin flush with a particular quantity of niacin, usually the next day that same dosage of niacin won't create the same effect, and usually after a few more days you will have none of this sensation -- until you increase the dosage of niacin. When you take niacin to a new, higher level (from 100 mg, for instance, to 200 mg) you can experience the reddening again.
Super Life Glow is unique amount all vitamin formulations in that some combination of the ingredients allow the SAME dosage of niacin in that formula to cause the niacin flush EVERY DAY for many weeks or months.
So, take Life Glow Plus or Super Life Glow and get the benefits of the Niacin Flush. Click here for a large number of scientific studies on the B Vitamin called niacin.
Here is an example of a useful scientific study:
"Niacin can be very effective and safe in lowering low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglyceride levels and also in increasing high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. In combination with other lipid-lowering drugs (eg, bile acid sequestrants), it has reduced the incidence of cardiovascular events and stopped the progression of coronary artery lesions. It may be the most cost-effective lipid-lowering agent currently available. At lower doses, sustained-release forms of niacin may also improve patient compliance. " click here for the full reference.

Dr. Grundy, like many other corrupted researchers, has announced that niacin is a dangerous drug -- not to be taken without a doctor's advice. (Give it a minute to find the bookmark or go to Number A2 by scrolling.)
