NOW Foods Niacin (Vitamin B-3) 500 mg Veg Capsules provide an essential B-group vitamin that supports overall health and well-being. Each capsule delivers 500 mg of niacin as nicotinic acid, a form known to aid in energy production and cardiovascular function.
Niacin, also known as Vitamin B-3, is a water-soluble vitamin crucial for various bodily functions, including energy metabolism and the maintenance of healthy skin. It plays a significant role in converting food into energy and supports the normal function of the nervous system.
NOW Foods Niacin 500 mg Veg Capsules are formulated with nicotinic acid, the form of niacin that can cause a temporary flushing reaction. This "niacin flush" is characterized by a warm, tingling sensation and redness of the skin, which is harmless and typically subsides within an hour. Individuals new to niacin supplementation or sensitive to flushing may consider starting with a lower dose to assess tolerance.
