Niacin The real story : [learn about the wonderful healing properties of niacin]

Abram Hoffer, 1917-2009

Book - 2012

Niacin (vitamin B3) is a small molecule-made of only 14 atoms-smaller even than the simplest sugar. But this one molecule has profound effects on health: it plays a role in over 500 reactions in the body. Many illnesses are caused by too little niacin, and many illnesses can be cured with mega doses of niacin. The authors are advocates of orthomolecular (nutrition-based) medicine, supporting an approach to wellness that involves substances that naturally occur in the human body, such as niacin.
