Emergence of taurine as a therapeutic agent for neurological disorders. This article addresses the use of taurine in the treatment of various neurodegenerative diseases such as AD, PD, cerebral ischemia, memory impairment, depression, anxiety, SCI, TBI, and epilepsy. In the various disease models, it has the effect of reducing the damage caused by oxidative stress. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10479846/

The brain is an energy-intensive organ, and its function is directly influenced by our metabolic state. Research has shown that ketones provide a more efficient and neuroprotective fuel source for the brain compared to glucose. This is particularly relevant for conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease, epilepsy, and even traumatic brain injury.
The studies done by many researchers as well as on-going studies show that selected mushrooms do have neurotrophic properties that can be beneficial to humans. Regular consumption may promote nerve and brain health. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3924982/
Despite slightly favorable efficacy having been reported in general, there is still controversy surrounding the therapeutic benefits of functional nutrients within epilepsy. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6628163/

See HOW TO DETERMINE A SATURATION LEVEL OF NIACIN http://www.doctoryourself.com/niacin.html
What is the size of the Niacin dose you are taking? Is it causing any “flushing” or itchiness? If your answer is yes, are the symptoms less than 20 minutes? How long do these symptoms last? Try much smaller doses if this is the case. As little as 50 mg can cause these symptoms in some people. This is a delicate issue in your case and if you do not tolerate niacin over time (healing time can be 6 months or longer), you may have to consider a less effective and more tolerable form of niacin such as INOSITOL HEXANICOTINATE POWDER at https://purebulk.com/products/inositol-hexanicotinate as suggested in this research at https://www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/circ.140.suppl\_1.14436

The ideal niacin dosage varies depending on an individual's genetics and their infections and/or stresses. Ultimately, perhaps the best gauge of the most effective niacin dosage regimen may involve the flush response. The niacin-eliciting flush pathway is known to be independent of the NAD biosynthetic pathway in our understanding thus far, and the niacin dose that just causes flushing is currently known to be exceptionally therapeutic for several indications. Still, some will flush with as little as 50 mg while others still do not even experience a flush after taking 4,000 mg at one time! The latter situation is expected to involve an individual with other health problems.
A simple straightforward recommendation is to take whatever dosage of niacin that elicits a flush response, starting with low doses and increasing gradually over several days to weeks until a flush appears. Remember that 1,000 mg taken 3 times a day in the plain old immediate release form has been successfully used in medical practice for over 50 years.

I highly recommend that everyone consider Niacin therapy after reading this interview. "A niacin flush – if you’re doing it right – will last about 20 minutes. If you take enough niacin to flush for an hour or two and you have to lie down and feel nauseous, you did it wrong. You took too much. Don’t do that. Well, how do you make sure you don’t take too much? You gradually increase." http://www.doctoryourself.com/InterviewNiacin01.pdf
Personally, I found that taking Niacin with food reduced the "flush" effect. Sometimes I feel like a flush, sometimes I don't.
As I dig deeper into the research on Niacin and Niacinamide it becomes apparent that there are conflicting studies, opinions and recommendations that are dependent on what you are trying to accomplish. My main focus is simply "brain repair", so it is going to take time to research and review the information available for breast cancer patients.
The following article suggests that Niacinamide may interfere with Niacin's ability to repair brain damage. A little beyond midpage there is a paragraph entitled "Nicotinamide (niacinamide) vs niacin (nicotinic acid)" suggesting that Niacinamide can interfere with those pathways that Niacin addresses at https://onedaymd.aestheticsadvisor.com/2020/09/nac-nr-nad.html
Remember that Niacin can create a flushing effect and you must start out with small doses such as 1/64th tsp. a couple times a day. To avoid the flushing affect, simply mix your niacin powder into food and gradually increase the dose each day, up to 1/8 tsp. until you experience a slight flushing affect. It is fine to take the weekends off.
PLEASE note that some people do not tolerate Niacin very well. In that case, stop using it or try smaller doses with food. I’m still reviewing the research so these recommendations may change over time…
NEW: In-depth review of NIACIN: THE REAL STORY. See https://raindrop.io/glycop/niacin-niacinamide-33888089 and https://raindrop.io/glycop/2016-18528107/search/sort=score\&perpage=30\&page=0\&search=niacin
Niacin and niacinamide are available at nearly EVERY STORE that provides supplements, and they are very cheap. I prefer https://purebulk.com/products/niacinamide-powder-vitamin-b3 and smaller personalized doses of niacin if you want to go that route https://purebulk.com/products/niacin-vitamin-b3-immediate-release

Remember that Niacin can create a flushing effect and you must start out with small doses such as 1/64th tsp. a couple times a day. Whereas niacinamide does not cause flushing, the doses used in most studies are 200 to 300 milligrams. Most niacinamide capsules are 500mg (that dose is usually not a problem for most people), therefore I prefer the powder so that the dose can be customized to each individual's needs.

P.S. Reducing inflammation by Earthing (grounding) is a must for everyone. You'll find it mentioned in my Hope article as number 3 on my list of things to treat and prevent disease. https://raindrop.io/glycop/grounding-18528195
Cancer, M.S., Huntington's, Parkinson's and many diseases may have a common denominator. Undoing the damage AFTER eliminating INFLAMMATION, grain-fed meat, sugar, wheat, milk and refined starch may be paramount to your health. Learn more at http://tiny.cc/glycop-hope.
