[transcript of excerpt above]
“I
worked with a lady once who was suicidally depressed. She lived at
home with her family. She was in her 50s. And she spent all day
sitting in a corner, faced the corner. She wouldn't talk to anyone;
she wouldn't eat with anyone; she was totally uncommunicative. She
was under the care of a psychiatrist, of course; as she should be.
And the psychiatrist had her on a variety of medications, which you
would expect. The family was wondering about nutrition.”
Gentleman
mentioned Dr. Hoffer's (?) work with Niacin – “and they wondered
how much she needed to take.... this person was very seriously ill.
And I mentioned that Dr. Hoffer normally gave about 3000 mg a day of
Niacin, but some people need a lot more, especially very sick people.
And they should give her as much as it takes to make her better.”
“At
11,500 mg of Niacin a day, she was sitting at the table and talking
to them like nothing had happened. So they went to the psychiatrist,
showed the psychiatrist this recovered person, and [he] said, well, I
don't think you should take all that Niacin. It might be harmful.”
“So
they stopped giving her the Niacin. And she was back in the corner.”
“Safety
with Niacin? There's not one death from Niacin per year on average.
There's been one or two attributed over the last 15 or 20 years. But
there's not even one death per year from Niacin.”
“And
how many people that are suicidally depressed actually go and end
their lives?”
