Niacina 100mg Cápsulas - Pack de 2

What is Niacin (Vitamin B3)?

Niacin, also known as vitamin B3, is a water-soluble B-complex vitamin. It is naturally found in foods such as chicken, tuna, chickpeas, and peanuts. This vitamin is essential for the body and plays an important role in various cellular functions.

Product Description

This supplement provides 100 mg of niacin per capsule. Each bottle contains 100 capsules, and the pack includes 2 bottles, offering a total of 200 capsules (200 days' supply if one capsule is taken daily). The recommended dose is one capsule daily, preferably with a meal to facilitate absorption. The recommended dose should not be exceeded without consulting a healthcare professional.

Forms of Niacin: Niacin vs. Niacinamide

Niacin comes in two main forms: nicotinic acid (niacin) and nicotinamide (niacinamide). The main difference is that niacin can cause a flushing or itching effect on the skin known as "flush," especially at high doses. This effect is due to the vasodilation it stimulates. In contrast, niacinamide does not produce this effect. This product contains niacin in the form of nicotinic acid.

Possible Side Effects and Precautions

Niacin is generally safe at recommended doses. However, at doses above 50 mg, effects such as redness, itching, or a feeling of warmth on the skin (flush) may appear. These symptoms are temporary and usually disappear after a few hours. To minimize the flush, the capsule can be taken with food or the dose can be divided into several intakes. People with liver problems, peptic ulcers, or diabetes should consult their doctor before taking niacin supplements.

Who should take niacin supplements?

Niacin supplements are indicated for people who wish to supplement their diet with vitamin B3, especially in cases of restrictive diets or increased needs. However, food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a balanced diet. Ideally, nutrients should be obtained from food and supplements should only be used when necessary.
