Swanson Niacin (B3) Cardio Health Support Carbohydrate Metabolism 500 Milligrams 250 Capsules

Awesome! It gave me a great flush, I could feel the oxygen bubbles on my face and neck, it gave me a fresh (pretty) blushing look.

I took 4 of these 500mg tablets, and they had virtually no impact on me at all. Lets call it a rating of 1/10 fluhsing impact. Whereas I have taken 1-3 capsules of other brands rated at 100mg dosage, and they would turn me red and bring on a huge flush. Lets rated that 9/10. So it is clear to me Swanson are aboslutely lying to customers when they tell you there is 500mg of Niacin in each capsules. I would question if they even had 1/10th that amount. And just to be clear this is NOT the FLish Free product. It goes without saying that people MUST avoid wasting money on this product. It also puts into question every other Swanson branded product. There is clearly a reaosn why they sell their products so cheapley. I think you have your reasons why, now.

I take at least two hours before I exercise with a small meal. I know it is not time released, but for me, there is a delayed flush up to 2 hours. I changed from no flush to flush, because I really do feel the difference in my body. It is also keeping my cholesterol down, because I feel more energized to workout longer and harder. It is amazing what this B3 does, and it is affordable.

I've been taking Swanson's 500 mg Niacin capsules twice a day for years to help control my genetic predisposition to high cholesterol. Inexpensive quality product that continues to provide great results. Occasionally I experience the "flushing", but it passes. (Note: Products advertised as Niacin without the flushing are not the same ingredient and don't have the same results.)

The quality is good. However this is Niacin in caps which makes it quick release causing much flush feeling (like having a sun burn). I did not pay attention to it being in caps. Should be provided in hard tablet form to slow down release. Many formulations have niacin combined with another chemical to reduce flushing so why would anyone provide it in quick release caps(powder inside). My doctor prescribed niacin to reduce a certain form of low density chloesterol Lp(a)
