What is Niacinamide (B3)?
A precursor to NAD+, the central coenzyme in cellular energy pathways. Contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism, the maintenance of normal skin, normal psychological function and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.
Why Nicotinamide?
Nicotinamide delivers all of the metabolic and NAD+-supporting benefits of niacin without the vasodilatory flushing effect of nicotinic acid — making it suitable for daily use at supplemental doses.
What are the benefits of Niacinamide (B3)?
NAD+ production & cellular energy
Nicotinamide is a direct precursor to NAD+ and NADP+, the coenzymes that act as electron carriers in virtually every energy-producing reaction in the cell. NAD+ levels decline with age, making precursor supply increasingly relevant.
DNA repair
NAD+ is consumed by PARP enzymes during DNA repair and by sirtuins — proteins that regulate gene expression and metabolic health in response to stress and caloric status.
Skin barrier & metabolic health
Nicotinamide supports the synthesis of ceramides and other lipids that form the skin's moisture barrier, and contributes to normal glucose metabolism.
