Doctor’s Best – Time-release Niacin with niaXtend
What is Doctor’s Best Time-release Niacin with niaXtend 500mg?
Doctor’s Best Time-release Niacin with niaXtend 500mg supports cardiovascular health and the maintenance of cognitive function with age. It supplies niacin in an 8-hour extended-release form that enables you to enjoy the health benefits of niacin without experiencing the uncomfortable skin flushing that commonly accompanies other forms of niacin. Niacin, also known as vitamin B3 and nicotinic acid, supports more than 500 enzymatic reactions that play pivotal roles in metabolism, energy production, and healthy aging.
How does it work?
Extensive clinical research has shown that niacin as nicotinic acid may promote a favorable balance of blood lipids. The form of niacin typically found in multivitamins and fortified foods is “nicotinamide,” which exhibits vitamin B3 activity but not necessarily the cardiovascular benefits seen in research that examined nicotinic acid. According to a report endorsed by the American Heart Association, nicotinic acid appears capable of lowering blood lipids in part by altering their synthesis and inhibiting the mobilization of free fatty acids. Two niacin receptors, HM74 & HM74A, were recently discovered in humans. The HM74A receptors on adipose (fat) cells are believed to be particularly responsible for the helpful blood lipid-lowering ability of nicotinic acid.
Diets high in niacin have been associated with healthy cognitive function in the aging mind. This may in part be a result of niacin’s direct role in the regulation of healthy dendritic growth. Dendrites are a class of neuronal cells that enable the brain to communicate electric signals to other parts of the brain and the body. Niacin is able to provide potent antioxidant activity to address the accumulation of free radicals in brain mitochondria, the powerhouse organelles within neurons. Niacin is important for many of the complex regulatory pathways utilized by the body to maintain health with age.

This easy to swallow tab leaves me with a positive end result in that I feel like “something is going on” and it’s a good result, with no side effects.

love this product. I like the fact that I only need one pill a day. I’ve been taking it for over a month and I feel great. I have more energy and the quality of this product is natural. Drs Best is a household item in my house because it contains only natural ingredients.

Only 2 weeks on it, haven’t seen any effect yet. Took 1 each day for the 1st week and increase to 2 capsules daily from the 2nd week. Consider keeping the current dose for 6 months before taking a blood test to see any effects on cholesterol.

was on Prescription Niaspam and my cost went up to $20 per month. I was able to purchase this product which has the same strength and time release properties for $13 for 3 months. Works great and has helped raise my good cholesterol levels.

I take this for energy, folic acid. It seems to deliver the advertised effects and potency. There is no aftertaste or facial redness that I noticed.

NIACIN is used in combination with a healthy diet to lower bad cholesterol and raise good cholesterol. This medication is also used to lower triglycerides. If triglycerides are too high, you are at risk of developing pancreatitis.

I take 1000 and with another brand I had a flushing, not with this one!

Quality and ingredient are good. There was no redness, no niacin flushes. Laboratory values have improved. The goal is to take it after a meal. Proper packaging. The price is also right. I like this brand.

Excellent quality from Doctor’s Best, comes in a small pack, decent size (120 tablets) but the dose is high at 500mg. Recommended for those who want a supplement that improves heart health. Beware, however, of the niacin flush that happens to most people taking niacin in high doses. See your doctor if this happens.

I’ve been taking leave-in niacin for a few years now with no problems. I got this one, not thinking ‘extended release’ would be any different. Boy, was I wrong! I had never experienced niacin flushing before but did twice with this supplement. It was horrible! It might not happen to anyone else, but this brand just wasn’t for me.
