Analysis

This Source Naturals product delivers a potent 1500mg dose of Niacinamide, the form of Niacin that does not cause the 'flush.' This high concentration is particularly noteworthy for its potential benefits in intensive skin support and robust metabolic pathway assistance, aligning with some advanced nutritional protocols. However, for average daily needs, this dosage is significantly higher than recommended, and for individuals primarily seeking to manage cholesterol levels, this form of Niacin is not the most effective. Online reviews are positive, often from users seeking higher doses for specific conditions, confirming its potency without the flush. Nutritionists might recommend this dose only for targeted therapeutic applications.

Pros
  • Very high 1500mg dosage, suitable for specific high-dose therapeutic applications.
  • Niacinamide form completely avoids the uncomfortable 'niacin flush'.
  • Strong potential for skin health benefits and intensive metabolic support.
Cons
  • Dosage is often excessively high for general daily supplementation.
  • Lacks the proven efficacy of nicotinic acid for significant cholesterol lowering.
  • Higher cost per dose compared to lower concentration Niacinamide products.
