Mr. Stephen Vogel

11 Broadview Terrace

Norwalk, Conn. 06851

Dear Mr, Vogel:

In answer to your letter, I am sending you a copy of my paper and some other material under separate cover.

It is my opinion that anxiety is sometimes controlled by moderately large doses of niacin or niacinamide. I have been taking niacin three times a day, 250 mg at the end of each meal, not for anxiety but for the anti-aging effect that it seems to have.

I suggest that you write to Dr. Humphry Osmond, New Jersey Neuro-Psychiatric Institute, Box 1000, Princeton, New Jersey 08540, for the name of a physician in your area interested in orthomolecular psychiatry.

With best wishes to you, I am

Sincerely yours,

Linus Pauling
