Analysis

Solaray Niacin 100 mg provides a straightforward 100mg dose of niacin, assumed to be nicotinic acid given the lack of specific form indication or "flush-free" claim. Solaray is a well-regarded brand known for its quality. This dosage is suitable for general daily Vitamin B3 supplementation, supporting metabolic processes and energy production. While nicotinic acid is used for heart health, this 100mg dose is typically considered too low for significant therapeutic effects on cholesterol levels, and users should expect to experience the characteristic niacin flush.

Pros
  • Reputable brand
  • Affordable
  • Provides a good general B3 dose
Cons
  • Will cause the niacin flush
  • Dose is too low for significant therapeutic cholesterol benefits
Warnings
  • Expect a niacin flush (redness, itching, tingling).
