Vitamin B3

Description

Niacin and niacinamide are forms of Vitamin B3. It is found in many foods including yeast, meat, fish, milk, eggs, green vegetables, beans, and cereal grains. Niacin and niacinamide are also found in many vitamin B complex supplements with other B vitamins.
The body breaks these chemicals down to produce two additional chemicals: NAD and NADP.
NAD and NADP play a role in a variety of chemical reactions inside the body and also support cell metabolism. So, people who don’t get enough vitamin B-3 can experience a range of health problems and symptoms, ranging from minor to life-threatening.
Niacin reduces the risk of heart disease and lowers harmful cholesterol while raising good cholesterol. Niacin may also reduce the incidence of asthma-induced wheezing, and may be helpful in treating or preventing atherosclerosis, second heart attacks, Alzheimer’s disease, and osteoarthritis.
Vitamin B3 is one of the eight B-complex water-soluble vitamins. Niacin has a wide range of uses in the body as a food additive, helping functions in the digestive system, skin, and nervous system.
