    Chronic pain due to mitochondrial dysfunction, niacinamide can treat it

    As many of my readers know, there is an epidemic of chronic pain disorders in Western countries, which has subsequently led to over-prescription and (ab)use of opioid medication, which has then acted as a gateway drug and fueled a massive and deadly opioid epidemic in those countries. In order...

    HUMAN STUDY: Vitamin B3 ups muscle/bone mass/strength, lowers fat, improves glucose control

    HIV-1 Breakthrough: niacinamide as a possible treatment

    The study does not claim a cure but it is a direct corroboration of human trials with HIV-1 patients conducted back in the early 1990, as those trials used high dose niacinamide (3g daily) and found improvement in the general condition of the patients. The mechanism of actions was, again...

    Niacinamide may lower blood pressure in humans by raising NAD+

    The study actually used the now-banned NAD+ precursor known as nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), but, as I keep reminding people, multiple studies have demonstrated statistically equivalent rise in NAD+ levels from equal doses of any of the known NAD+ precursors such as niacin, niacinamide...

    Human trial - niacinamide may treat Alzheimer Disease (AD)

    One of my first posts on the topic of bioenergetics - more than a decade ago - was in regards to a promising animal study with the human-equivalent dose (HED) of 30mg/kg niacinamide (NAM) daily showing robust effects on that animal species' model of AD. The authors of the animal study followed...

    NAD+ deficiency causes kidney disease, niacinamide prevents it

    Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is one of the most prevalent complications of obesity and diabetes. Its causes, as usual, are "unknown" according to mainstream medicine but high glucose levels and genetic predisposition are thought to play a role. Many studies have called into question these...

    Niacinamide may prevent neurodegeneration

    Yet another study demonstrating that maintaining high energy levels through OXPHOS is crucial for health, in this case brain health. There are many studies, going back decades, demonstrating that a drop in NAD+ levels, and thus of NAD/NADH and, consequently, of OXPHOS is a common feature of...

    Vitamin B3 counteracts (cancer) cachexia, by restoring NAD+ levels

    As many of my readers know, the majority of cancer patients do not succumb from the actual tumor burden, but as a result of (usually in that order) cachexia, immunocompromise from radiation/chemotherapy, hospital-acquired infection, and/or cytokine storm after surgery for removing the tumor. Of...

    Niacinamide/NAD+ may prevent heart failure

    The rates of cardiovascular disease (CVD) continue to rise and the condition is still the top killer in developed countries, though it is likely that cancer will take the top spot in the next few years and CVD will move back to second place. Heart failure (HF) is one of the common outcomes of...

    Niacinamide fully reverses endotoxemia and leaky gut (from ethanol)

    The study below is a true gem due to both its broadness of impact, as well as the ease and low-cost of the therapeutic intervention it studied. Chronic endotoxemia, a cause and a result of increased gut permeability (aka "leaky gut") is now known to be a major cause of virtually all chronic...

    A single, low dose niacinamide drops triglycerides by 75%

    Among the vitamin B3 analogs, niacin is perhaps the most famous for its ability to both raise "good" cholesterol (HDL) and also lower triglycerides. However, niacinamide, nicotinamide riboside (NR) and nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) are all effective precursors to NAD (as niacin is) and...
