So ordinary vitamin B3 doesn’t help glaucoma?

Hi Dr Greger! This post is off-topic, but your website recommends putting a comment under any of your videos if I have a question, so here it is. 😊

I just learned that my favourite burger has modified cellulose as one of the ingredients. It got me thinking about the fact that I've seen this ingredient many times and not thought much about it, so I looked it up and found that it's made of cellulose from trees or *cotton*. The heavy pesticide use associated with cotton farming makes me wonder about the pesticide levels found in modified cellulose, but I couldn't find anything about that online. Do you know anything about it?

Are there any whole foods sources for nicotinamide?

I was informed by eye doctor that a patient in a clinical study on B3 and glaucoma died of liver damage.

Niacin for the win. I take it every day and have done for years

I'll tell you the real reason why so many people are being diagnosed with glaucoma but you have to close your eyes.
