Niacinamide 90 vcaps

Niacinamide (vitamin B3) by Pure Encapsulations 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 oxidationreduction reactions, nutrient metabolism and ATP synthesis.
• Alpha lipoic acid offers additional support for the energy production process.
• Glucose Metabolism: Research indicates that niacinamide may support healthy glucose metabolism and protect pancreatic beta cell function. In a meta-analysis of 10 randomized controlled trials, niacinamide supplementation promoted healthy C-peptide levels, insulin metabolism and beta cell function. In another study, niacinamide helped maintain healthy C-peptide levels and glucose metabolism. 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. In a 12-week randomized double blind trial involving 72 subjects, niacinamide provided statistically significant support for joint flexibility and normal inflammatory response.

What Is The Source?

Niacinamide and alpha lipoic acid are synthetic. Hypo-allergenic plant fiber is derived from pine cellulose.
