A member asked:
Can niacin vitamin b6 cause blood glucose to rise ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Easy does it.: Both niacin (B3) and to a lesser extent B6 have been known to raise blood sugar levels. Especially, when these are taken at elevated amounts. It is important to inform your doctor, especially if you are a diabetic, before taking any vitamins or supplements.
