Exactly what Brian2 said is what I've been taking, with the only exception being I don't have the flush free version. I actually have read on this board that the flush free is less effective at improving your lipid profile.
The blood tests I have taken following a cycle of Prohormones prove that these supplements work, that and I increased my cardio.

Bryan nailed it, only thing I'd add is some CoQ10 with that RYR

niacin the otc vitamin or prescription niacin?
what you buy in the vitamin bottle is different from what a doc prescribes. the rx stuff is niacin while the otc stuff is niacinamide. niacinamide has not been shown to have an impact except for one studies in the 70s which showed some cholesterol lowering effect after long-term supplementation... but at what dose and for how long i don't remember. i would chalk niacin up as an L and use other things such as red rice yeast, garlic, fish oils, exercise, cutting trans-fatty acids, and increasing monounsaturated fat intake. this is stuff that has better science behind it.
