What is vitamin B3?

Vitamin B3 is one of eight B vitamins—vitamin B1 (thiamine), vitamin B2 (riboflavin), vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid), vitamin B6 (pyridoxine), vitamin B12 (cyanocabalamin) and folic acid—often referred to as B complex.

Vitamin B3 is water soluble, meaning it’s not stored in the body and must be replaced daily. It can be found in many foods, including meat, fish, milk, eggs, green vegetables, cereal grains and yeast.

Niacinamide and niacin are different forms of vitamin B3. Niacinamide can be made from niacin in the body. This occurs when niacin is taken in amounts greater than what is needed by the body.

Niacinamide is sometimes the preferred from of vitamin B3 because it doesn’t cause “flushing,” the tingling sensation often reported with use of niacin.
