Niacin (Vit B3) 90 Vegetarian Capsules

Niacin is an important vitamin that your body requires for many functions. The B vitamin helps your body utilize carbohydrates, proteins, and fats; aids in the production of sex- and stress-related hormones; is vital to nervous system functioning; and is necessary for healthy skin, hair, eyes, liver, and circulation.

Unfortunately, your body can't store niacin. You must obtain it on a daily basis from food or supplements. Most people in the United States and other developed countries get enough niacin from their diets by eating foods such as organ meats, fish, vegetables, beans, peanuts, bread, and cereal. However, certain conditions can cause a niacin deficiency; these include a poor diet, diarrhea, alcoholism, liver disorders, carcinoid syndrome (characterized by a group of tumors found in the small intestine, colon, appendix, or lungs), and Hartnup disease (a genetic disorder in which your body can’t absorb the amino acids necessary for making niacin).

If you have a niacin deficiency, you may experience indigestion, diarrhea, tiredness, vomiting, sadness, cracked and scaly skin, a burning feeling in your mouth, mouth swelling, a bright-red color to your tongue, confusion, or problems with memory. Taking a supplement like Niacin (Vit B3) by Allergy Research Group can increase your niacin levels to relieve and prevent these symptoms.

Taking niacin supplements can cause a harmless symptom called niacin flush, in which you experience a slight tingling sensation and redness in your skin that lasts for about 10 minutes. Don’t take more than 1.5 grams of niacin a day, unless that higher amount is recommended by your health care provider.

Each vegetarian capsule provides 250 mg of niacin, a B complex vitamin. One 90-capsule bottle of Allergy Research Group’s Niacin (Vit B-3) will last for about 30 to 45 days when taken at the recommended dosage of one capsule, two to three times a day with meals.
