Metabolic Syndrome - Factors

0 Recommendations

There’s an article, today, about metabolic syndrome on the website cholesterolscore.com
The article discusses niacin as an effective therapy for most of the risk factors in metabolic syndrome, including high cholesterol.

I can attest to the fact that niacin lowers triglycerides, raises HDL and lowers LDL. My BP also went down after a few months of niacin therapy, but I never thought that there was a niacin/BP relation (until I read today's article on cholesterolscore.com ).
