latest on niacin, nicotinamide, etc.…?

Hey Gang! So what is the latest with niacin? I only take Tru Niagen, but I’ve read multiple posts about niacin, nicotinamide, etc. Does anyone have an idea of which is best for slowing PD progression? I feel a bit overwhelmed with the surfeit of data! Any advice would be greatly appreciated 🙏

like you I take TruNiagen and have done for 3 years to fix my RLS. It worked wonders and still does. I also have PD for last 5 years so not sure if truN is helping Pd alongside c/l and other supplements. I also follow b1 protocol and that has produced great results for PD

interesting and good to know! I almost decided to try the B1 protocol but was a little intimidated because it seems like you have to go up and down with your dosage and monitor it and it seems a bit mysterious to be honest… How have you found that aspect of it?

I found it very easy over 2 years ago. Before starting you need to add 144 elemental magnesium daily and a good bcomplex with all low bs for 2/3 weeks before starting b1. I chose b1 sublingual from superior source Started as per the protocol of 50mg MWF each week. And achieved success in less than 4 weeks. Numerous symptoms were resolved and still are. I have a utube video called Parkinson’s b1 therapy Julie’s success story which show and tells of my improvements. Best wishes. Give it a try.
