Vitamin B3

Vitamin B3

Vitamin B3 is a water-soluble vitamin, and is generally used to support healthy cholesterol levels and help reduce certain fatty substances in the blood. As many as 200 enzymes require Niacin's coenzymes for energy metabolism. Niacin also helps to regulate blood sugar, and it works at the cellular level to protect the skin and keep the digestive system healthy.

Vitamin B3 is also used to prevent and treat pellagra (niacin deficiency), a disease caused by inadequate diet and other medical problems. Niacin is a precursor to the amino acid tryptophan, and it can be made from tryptophan in the body.

Benefits of Vitamin B3

Vitamin B3 is also known as Niacin, and is part of the B Vitamins. B vitamins help the process the body uses to get or make energy from food. All B vitamins are water-soluble, and must be replenished regularly, since any excess is excreted in the urine.

The B vitamins support energy production, increase the rate of metabolism, maintain healthy skin and muscle tone, enhance immune and nervous system function, and promote cell growth and division, including that of the red blood cells that help prevent anemia.
