for every study that shows nothing there is one that shows benefits.. i can tell ya that thousands upon thousands have raised their hdl with niacin.. look at the medical community boards.. it raised mine with my shitty diet..
I remember reading some time back that inflammation/irritation had some contributing factors. You can get that tested, but I would have to read it again to recall the name of the test.
My own real world experience:
One year ago, 60% blockage in one of my arteries. I was put on 500mg Niacin each night. Today, blockage down to 30%.
