Niacin causes a flush, which means it dilates my capillaries . I'm doing this to avoid accumulation of nephropathy due to my type one diabetes. It sounds like Covid causes a series of mini strokes, which I'm combating. I'm wondering if niacin flushing can prevent serious complications of covid. I've searched online for any studies, so far nothing. <br /><a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Covid" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Covid</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Niacin" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Niacin</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/NiacinFlush" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>NiacinFlush</span></a></p>
