Rebixiao granules reduced gout symptoms
Effects of Rebixiao granules on blood uric acid in patients with repeatedly attacking acute gouty arthritis.
Niacin's isolated impact unclear
We observed the effectiveness of Rebixiao granules, which include niacin, in treating patients with repeatedly attacking acute gouty arthritis. In the study, 90 patients were split into two groups. The first group received Rebixiao granule treatment, while the second group was given traditional anti-inflammatory tablets. Both groups also followed standard treatments like dietary changes and hydration.

One interesting aspect was the animal study that involved administering hypoxanthine and niacin to mice. This helped establish a model to see how these treatments affected uric acid levels in the blood. The results showed that Rebixiao granules were effective at reducing blood uric acid and had quicker results than just anti-inflammatory treatments alone. However, while niacin was part of the treatment, the study does not clarify its isolated impact on gout as it was combined with other ingredients.

Overall, we found that Rebixiao granules, possibly aided by niacin, were beneficial for gout patients without significant side effects. This indicates a promising option for managing gout symptoms and preventing future attacks.

Helps with hormones
Niacin, also known as vitamin B3, is a remarkable supplement. I take it during menopause, as it doesn't trigger hot flashes like regular vitamin B3. It aids those with hormone issues, helps with gout, and improves blood microcirculation. I wish you all good health.

Caution for gout
This is excellent. It is said to reduce bad cholesterol and increase good cholesterol. However, those with gout should be cautious, as I experience gout attacks whenever I consume it.😖
