@wester130 Niacin reduces inflammation and helps heal wounds. The flush is histamine release. It increases blood flow, which would logically be beneficial to hair growth. Have you ever taken it? I actually think the flush feels really good, and you have an extreme sense of well being and calmness after.

@Hearthfire NMN is actually very cheap

I may experiment with it instead of normal Niacinamide

@wester130 glucose + niacinamide + apple polyphenols

Do you still use the Swanson brand, for the apple polyphenols?

@Mossy I stopped using them topcically, because it was such a mess to apply. But looking backon it that was because of the apple juice i diluted it in.
So maybe I'll give the polyphenols another run mixed with niacinamide and glucose and water.

I hear you. If there's one thing I've learned over the years with these topicals, at least for me, they're impossible to use on a regular basis, apart from during sleep, due to the mess.

The glucose would seem to be a mess, no matter the form. On those lines, I've been thinking of using the common D-Ribose supplement, as opposed to the much more expensive variant of it used in the studies.
