The Magic of Niacin
Since the 1950s, Dr Abram Hoffer, MD, PhD, healed countless hearts and minds with his discovery of megadose niacin (vitamin B3) therapy for schizophrenia. This heralded the onset of megavitamin therapy, starting as a niacin/vitamin C treatment. As the therapy developed, other nutrients and health considerations were included, per unique individual requirements.
Eventually, worldwide use of niacin and megavitamin treatment contributed to the recovery or great improvement of tens of thousands of people with schizophrenia: voices and psychosis gone, rare, or significantly muted.
