Niacin -http://www.doctoryourself.com/hoffer_niacin.html (edited) "I (Abram Hoffer MD) advised her to eliminate sugar, potatoes, tomatoes & peppers, (about 10% of arthritics have allergic reactions to the solanine family of plants). She was to add niacin-amide 500 mg 4x daily (following the work of W. Kaufman), ascorbic acid 500 mg 4x daily (as an anti-stress nutrient & for subclinical scurvy), pyridoxine 250 mg per day (found to have anti-arthritic properties by Dr. J. Ellis), zinc sulfate 220 mg per day (the white areas in her nails indicated she was deficient in zinc), flaxseed oil 2 tablespoons & cod liver oil 1 tablespoon per day (her skin condition indicated she had a deficiency of omega 3 essential fatty acids).
The detailed treatment of arthritis & the references are described in my book. [14]
1 month later a new couple came into my room.
Her husband was smiling, relaxed & cheerful as he pushed his wife in in her chair.
She was sitting with her legs dangling down, smiling as well. I immediately knew that she was a lot better.
I began to ask her about her various symptoms she had had previously.
After a few minutes she impatiently broke in to say, 'Dr. Hoffer, the pain in my back is all gone.'
She no longer bled from her bowel, no longer bruised all over her body, & was more comfortable. 
The pain in her back was easily controlled with aspirin and was gone from her hips.
(It had not helped before). She was cheerful & laughed in my office. Her heart was regular at last.
I added inositol niacinate 500 mg 4x daily to her program.  She came back June 17, 1982 & had improved even more, able to pull herself up from the prone position on her bed for the 1st time in 15 years. 
She was free of depression.  I increased her ascorbic acid to 1 gram 4x daily & added vitamin E 800 IU.
She had shown such dramatic improvement, so I advised her she need no longer come to see me.
9/1/1982, she called me on the telephone...She said she was making even more progress...
She (had) been able to get to the phone (as) she was able to get around alone in her (wheel) chair...
She had not called for herself but for her husband.
He had been suffering from a cold for a few days.  She was nursing him, & wanted some advice for him.
After a visit October 28, 1983, I wrote to her doctor: 'Today Mrs. K.V. reported she had stayed on the whole vitamin program very rigorously for 18 months, but since that time had slacked off somewhat. She is regaining a lot of her muscle strength, can now sit in her wheelchair without difficulty, can also wheel herself around in her wheelchair but, of course, can not do anything useful with her hands because her fingers are so awful.
She would like to become more independent & perhaps could do so if something could be done about her fingers & also about her hip.
I am delighted she has arranged to see a plastic surgeon to see if something can be done to get her hand mobilized once more.
I have asked her to continue with the vitamins but because she had difficulty taking so many pills she will take a preparation called Multijet which is available from Portland & contains all the vitamins & minerals & can be dissolved in juice.  She will also take inositol niacinate 3 grams daily.'  I saw her again March 24, 1988.
About 4 of her vertebra had collapsed & she was suffering more pain which was alleviated by Darvon.
It had not been possible to treat her hands surgically.
She had been able to eat by herself until 6 months before this last visit. She had been taking small amounts of vitamins. She was able to use a motorized chair. She had been depressed. I wrote to her doctor, 'She had gone off the total vitamin program about 2-3 years ago. It is very difficult for her to swallow and I can understand her reluctance to carry on with this. I have therefore suggested that she take a minimal program which would include inositol niacinate 3 grams daily, ascorbic acid 1 gram 3 times, linseed oil 2 capsules & cod liver oil 2 capsules. Her spirits are good & I think she is coming along considering the severe deterioration of her body as a result of the arthritis over the past few decades.'
She was last seen by her doctor in the fall of 1989.  Her husband was referred. I saw him May 18, 1982.
He complained of headaches & a sense of pressure about his head present for 3 years.
This followed a series of light strokes.
I advised him to take niacin 3 grams daily + other vitamins including vitamin C.
By September 1983 he was well & when seen last March 24, 1988 was still normal."
