Inositol niacinate, also known as inositol hexanicotinate, is a compound formed by combining inositol with six molecules of nicotinic acid (niacin). It is a naturally occurring compound found in small amounts in some foods. Research suggests that inositol niacinate may offer benefits for cardiovascular health, including lowering cholesterol levels, improving blood flow, and reducing the risk of blood clots. It is also being studied for its potential to improve cognitive function and reduce inflammation. The mechanism of action of inositol niacinate is thought to involve its ability to act as a precursor to nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), a crucial coenzyme involved in numerous metabolic processes. Unlike niacin, inositol niacinate does not cause flushing, a common side effect of niacin supplementation. It is believed to be safer for long-term use compared to niacin. Further research is needed to fully understand its benefits and potential applications in health and disease.'
