Niacinimide can dilate blood vessels?!Nicomide?!

[Guest guest]

Hello Everyone--

I just had the most terrible run in with a nutrionist in a health food store,

who refused to leave me alone as I tried to shop for my Ester-C and Niacinimide.

(I thought I'd try it before purchasing NICOMIDE). I couldn't find the latter so

I had to ask him. He was NOSY. What do you need it for? Are you sure you don't

have Candida he said. Yeah I just need the Niacinimide.

Long story short. He frowned when I said it acted as an anti-inflammatory/

healthier choice over anti-biotic. Told me that in fact he used 500mg three

times a day of Niacinimide to treat people with poor circulation, arthristis,

rheumatism and such. He said that it acts as a DILATOR of blood vessels,

promoting Nitric Oxide Synthase and circulation.

Are you sure you don't mean NIACIN? I said.

Of course.

I am talking about NIACINIMIDE, the same thing that is in Nicomide. I repeated.

Yes, Nicotinimide, he said, also known as Niacinimide.

Anyway, I ran out of the store. Confused.

Does this make sense to anyone--can anyone clear this up?

Thanks for all your help.

MARIE
