Mother Earth Natural Health Niacin - Tablets

Niacin, or vitamin B3, is a vital member of the B-complex family of vitamins. It exists in the body primarily as nicotinic acid or niacinamide. As a water-soluble vitamin, niacin is not significantly stored in the body, making it essential to include in your daily diet. While the body can produce small amounts from the amino acid tryptophan found in protein-rich foods, daily intake is still necessary. Within the body, niacin functions as the coenzymes NAD and NADP. NAD plays a crucial role in converting nutrients—carbohydrates, fats, and proteins—into energy, while NADPH is key in synthesizing biomolecules like fatty acids and amino acids. The liver converts niacin into these coenzymes, and any excess is excreted through urine.
