Stephen Mcconnell is a scientist, researcher, and lipidemiologist. He is an expert in the use of Niacin, his work is international, and his protocols have been widely used by physicians.
In this insightful episode, we dive deep into the often misunderstood world of niacin or vitamin B3, which has been unfairly vilified and blamed for increasing cardiovascular disease risk, but Stephen dispels these myths and misconceptions. We explore the actual benefits of niacin, including:
- Its role in lowering cholesterol and triglyceride levels
- Its role in lowering Lp (a) and ApoB
- Use in treating certain conditions, like fatty liver disease and chronic kidney disease (CPK)
Stephen provides guidance on who makes a good candidate for niacin supplementation and which conditions it may be particularly helpful for. He also covers proper dosing protocols, how to take niacin safely and effectively, and tips for minimizing the infamous "niacin flush."
Don't miss this eye-opening discussion that separates fact from fiction when it comes to this powerful vitamin. Tune in to learn how niacin could potentially improve your health from an expert who has studied it extensively!
