Vitamin B3 500 mg, 100 capsules

Niacin (vitamin B3) - flush free

As it is a component of two essential coenzymes in the organism, NAD (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) and NADP (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate), vitamin B3 promotes energy production. Over two hundred specific enzymes (dehydrogenases), which are important for electron transport and cellular respiration (dissimilation), are activated by these two substances. Cellular respiration is the process by which ATP (adenosine triphosphate, a carrier of chemical energy) is produced in a mitochondrion (the cell's "power station") by burning nutrients. It is possible that vitamin B3 helps to reduce fatigue. It is also beneficial for the skin, mucous membranes, nervous system and mental health.

Vitamin B3 is available in two forms: Niacin (also known as nicotinic acid) and Niacinamide (also known as nicotinamide). Niacin is known to cause a "flush", where the skin becomes red and hot, often accompanied by burning, stinging and/or itching sensations. Niacinamide, a variant of niacin with an added amide group, does not cause a "niacin flush".

The pure form of vitamin B3 500 mg from Vitals provides a high dose. The raw material is enclosed in a vegetable capsule made from manioc and is supplemented with an additive made from rice. Ideally, use or recommend vitamin B3 together with a vitamin B complex or multivitamin (as B vitamins have a strong synergistic effect).
