Niacinamide (vitamin B3) supports energy metabolism, metabolic function and joint comfort. It does not cause the vasodilatation (“flush”) associated with niacin.
Uses for Niacinamide
Energy Production: Niacinamide is a precursor of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD), essential for oxidation-reduction reactions, nutrient metabolism and ATP synthesis.
Glucose Metabolism: Niacinamide may support healthy glucose metabolism and protect pancreatic beta cell function. Niacinamide supplementation promotes healthy C-peptide levels, insulin metabolism and beta cell function. Alpha lipoic acid is included to offer synergistic support for healthy glucose balance and metabolic function.
Joint Function: Niacinamide promotes joint mobility and comfort as well. Niacinamide provides statistically significant support for joint flexibility and normal inflammatory response.
Niacinamide and alpha lipoic acid are synthetic. Hypoallergenic plant fiber is derived from pine cellulose.
Suggested Usage
Adults: As a dietary supplement, take 2 capsules, 1-3 times daily, with meals.
