LNN Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 Niacinamide helped my DS when he was in a rage - DS tends to be an overmethylator and niacin sucks up methyl groups like a sponge. It has the opposite effect on DD, who tends to be an undermethylator and the last thing she needs is something that makes her shortage of methyl groups worse. So in my experience, it depends on genetics and methylation. If you try it, start low dose - like 50 mg - not the 500mg you typically find on amazon. Break the capsule open if you need to. This article might help http://mthfr.net/overmethylation-and-undermethylation-case-study/2012/06/27/ Niacin does help break down glutamate but the dose you'll do best on depends on your genes. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
