What is Vitamin B3 Niacin?
Niacin is the generic name for nicotinic acid (pyridine-3-carboxylic acid), nicotinamide (niacinamide or pyridine-3-carboxamide), and related derivatives, such as nicotinamide riboside. Niacin is naturally present in many foods, added to some food products, and available as a dietary supplement.
Niacin, or vitamin B3, is a water-soluble B vitamin found naturally in some foods, added to foods, and sold as a supplement. The two most common forms of niacin in food and supplements are nicotinic acid and nicotinamide. The body can also convert tryptophan-an amino acid-to nicotinamide. Niacin is water-soluble so that excess amounts the body does not need are excreted in the urine.
