A member asked:
Is nianci good to treat depression? i was diagnosed with suicidal depression, and after taking all sorts of prescription medication and finding nothing that worked, a friend recommended i go see a nutritionist who has me taking almost 15, 000 mg of niacin

Niacin.: I'd quite frankly be worried about the effect of that much Niacin on your liver. Is your nutritionist checking your blood tests regularly?
