Niacin: a Classic for Cardiovascular Health
Niacin: a Classic for Cardiovascular Health
Niacin—also known as nicotinic acid, or sometimes vitamin B3—is used
by the body to turn carbohydrates into energy, while also helping to
maintain the healthy function of the nervous system, digestive system,
skin and eyes. As a key component in basic nutrition, niacin is often
included as part of a daily multivitamin.When taken in higher amounts, however, niacin has been shown to deliver much more specific health benefits by working to both increase the levels of HDL (or “good” cholesterol) in the bloodstream while also decreasing LDL (or “bad” cholesterol). In fact, niacin will raise HDL cholesterol levels by 15 to 35 percent on average, making niacin the most effective natural substance available for raising HDL cholesterol. Increased levels of HDL result in decreased levels of LDL, because one of the primary functions of HDL is to pick up excess LDL in the bloodstream and return it to the liver for disposal.

A message to Doctors:
I will not blow smoke up your buttocks :-) With out conducting a survey of your practice we will never know for certain if you have a market for wellness. What I can tell you is the average results of the money generating questions...
1) Do you take nutritional supplements or vitamins of any kind? 80% say "YES"
2) Which nutritional supplements or vitamins do you take? Top 4 Products: Vitamin C, B Complex, Calcium, and Fish Oil
3) If we (your practice) offered a physician grade nutraceutical (nutritional supplements & vitamins) line here at the office would you by them here rather than where you currently buy? 70% say "YES"
4) Would you be interested in weight loss classes? 15% say "YES" (Huge Cash Generator and accepted by some insurance carriers)
5) Would you be interested in nutritional counseling in a group or in private? 25% say "YES"
So - PLEASE DO NOT take my word for it. Let's approach this scientifically and conduct a survey in your practice.
Contact me and I will create a custom survey with your practice logo and letterhead.
Once we survey a couple weeks worth of patients THEN we can conduct a proper analysis for your practice.
If you are a doctor that is sick and tiered of decreasing reimbursements, ever changing coding and policies, terrible government interventions decreasing your income and the ever rising cost of doing business - I believe that you and I have something to talk about.
