Nature's Way Niacin (nicotinic acid) is one of the two principal forms of the vitamin B-complex niacin. The term niacin refers to both niacinamide and nicotinic acid, the other principal form of niacin.
Niacinamide by itself does nothing, it is used as catalyst by organs and tissue to synthesize nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP), the active forms of niacin.
NAD and NADP are essential for many different biochemical processes where they donate a H+ (hydrogen) atom or a electron where it is ued to create energy. NAD and NADP are essential in the synthesis of steroid hormones from cholesterol forming of nitric oxide what causes vasodilation and regulate blood flow and blood pressure.
NAD is also involved in the activation of folate and regeneration of reduced glutathione. Glutathione is a strong antioxidant capable of extending life and protecting life itself against free radicals, toxins and abuse of medicine. Niacin(amide) supplementation is recommended since the level of toxins in our food as well as the use of prescription drugs has risen.
