ENDUR-ACIN - Niacin B3 - ER (Extended Release) 250 mg (200 ct) | Nicotinic Acid Formula Supporting Healthy Heart & Cholesterol Balance with Low-Flush 4-8 Hour Timed-Release Matrix

I had tried a few other slow release no flushing niacin products, but I often had really bad flushing once or twice a week sometimes to the point that it felt like my skin was on fire. Endur-acin is the real deal. Absolutely no flushing most of the time and the few times I had flushing it was very minor, even at the same dosage. Plus it is real Nicotinic Acid which is the form that helps control cholesterol.

Great product has helped me lower LDL from 174 to 124, still a way to go though. Lets see what next moths results say!

THE FLUSHING WAS HORRIBLE WITH THIS PRODUCT

I had previously taken a 500mg slo-release Niacin version. I didn’t make the association at first but after about 3-4 days I experienced a severe hot flash. My skin became reddened and I was so uncomfortable I had to go outside because the outdoor temp was in the 50s. However even outside when the sun hit me I thought my skin was going to burn off. Thought I was turning into a vampire. So I’ve been trying this at 250mg dosage starting at every other day. No issues. Now I’m at every day - no issues. So my 4 star rating is for easy to swallow, low cost, no severe hot flash. If later on there has been an actual impact on my cholesterol I’d give this 5 stars. My cholesterol isn’t high on an absolute basis but it was suggested to me that at my age I might benefit from a statin. I’m not fond of that idea, I find that losing weight and keeping it at a good level has more impact, which I’ve done. If this Niacin improves my cholesterol even more then I’ll be more than satisfied. If necessary I could increase it to 2 a day to equal 500mg but I’m not going to risk the severe hot flash.

I have been wanting to take Niacin for a while now because I know how beneficial it is, however, I was reluctant to do so because I am not particularly fond of the flush feeling, I am happy to report that this brand is fantastic, the flush feeling is very minimal if any at all and I only felt it the first couple of days, after that it's been smooth sailing, I highly recommend this product, not just because it provides very little to no flushing but also the quality is fantastic and the price is very fair.

Tiny pill that's easy to swallow. With one tablet I get no flushing, when i started taking two I had very light flushing.

This is an ok product if you consult your doctor first. The reason being you will need to have your liver checked every 3 months since this product can cause liver damage because it is time released. It's also a fairly large dosage. The product did cause me some problems after taking for about a month. Diahrrea, headaches, dry mouth etc. I decided to go to regular. 25 mg niacin. Remember everyone is different. Hope this helps some of you out there.

I take this with TTFD to activate Pyruvate Dehydrogenase.
