FAQ
- What is niacin and why is it important?
Swanson Niacin provides 100 mg NE of vitamin B3 (niacin), an essential water-soluble vitamin that supports healthy energy metabolism, nervous system function, and cellular health. Niacin is a precursor to the coenzymes NAD⁺ and NADP⁺, which are involved in hundreds of metabolic reactions that help convert carbohydrates, fats, and proteins into usable cellular energy. - How does niacin support healthy energy production?
Niacin plays a critical role in the body's production of cellular energy (ATP) by supporting the enzymes that convert food into usable fuel. By helping metabolize carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, Swanson Niacin supports healthy energy production and overall metabolic wellness as part of a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle. - Why does niacin cause a flushing sensation?
Swanson Niacin contains nicotinic acid, a form of vitamin B3 that may cause a temporary sensation of warmth, redness, tingling, or itching of the skin, commonly known as a niacin flush. This reaction is a normal, short-lived response caused by temporary widening of small blood vessels near the skin's surface. Taking niacin with food may help reduce flushing. - How does niacin support cardiovascular wellness?
As an essential B vitamin, niacin supports healthy energy metabolism in cells throughout the body, including the heart. It also plays a role in maintaining healthy lipid metabolism and supports overall cardiovascular wellness as part of a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle. Swanson Niacin is intended to provide nutritional support and is not a substitute for prescribed therapies. - What is the difference between niacin and niacinamide?
Niacin (nicotinic acid) and niacinamide (nicotinamide) are both forms of vitamin B3 that help support healthy energy metabolism and overall nutritional wellness. The primary difference is that niacin may cause a temporary flushing response, while niacinamide generally does not. Both provide vitamin B3 activity, but they differ in how they are processed by the body and are often selected based on individual preferences and wellness goals. Swanson Niacin contains nicotinic acid, the traditional form of vitamin B3. - Is Swanson Niacin suitable for special dietary needs?
Yes. Swanson Niacin is vegan, non-GMO, dairy free, and gluten free, making it an excellent choice for individuals with a variety of dietary preferences and restrictions. Each tablet provides 100 mg NE of niacin (vitamin B3) without animal-derived ingredients, dairy, gluten, or genetically modified ingredients, helping support healthy energy metabolism, nervous system function, and overall cellular wellness as part of a balanced lifestyle.
