A high-potency therapeutic dose of regular Niacin for energy metabolism, cardiovascular health, and nervous system support. Recommended for use under doctor's supervision. 100 capsules.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy you need it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNiacin (Vitamin B3) is one of the most important and well-researched B vitamins — essential for energy metabolism, cardiovascular health, nervous system function, and DNA repair. Regular niacin (nicotinic acid) is the most bioactive and well-researched form, particularly for cardiovascular support. This immediate-release capsule delivers 500 mg of niacin per capsule — a high-potency therapeutic dose at 3,125% DV. Note that regular niacin at this dose commonly causes a temporary skin flushing reaction — a warm, tingling, red flush — which is a normal and harmless physiological response. Taking it with food and consistently every day helps minimise this. If you prefer to avoid flushing entirely, we also stock flush-free niacin options. At this potency, physician supervision is recommended. The 100-capsule size is ideal for those starting out or trialling niacin supplementation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNiacin (Vitamin B3) 500 mg — 3,125% DV per capsule\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegular niacin (nicotinic acid) — the most bioactive and well-researched form of Vitamin B3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImmediate-release capsule — fast absorption\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports cellular energy production and metabolism\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports cardiovascular health\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports nervous system function and brain health\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports DNA repair and maintenance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNote: Temporary skin flushing, tingling, or redness is normal and harmless — take with food to minimise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGMP quality assured — family owned by Now Foods since 1968\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNote: Contains gelatin capsule — not suitable for vegetarians\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree from wheat, gluten, soy, milk, and egg ingredients\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100 capsules — 100-day supply at 1 capsule daily\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecommended for use under doctor's supervision at this potency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBy Now Foods — trusted quality since 1968\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFormula\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach capsule delivers:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNiacin\u003c\/strong\u003e (Vitamin B3): 500 mg | 3,125% DV\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSupplement facts\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eServing size: 1 capsule | 100 servings per container\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOther ingredients\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGelatin (capsule), cellulose, silica, magnesium stearate (vegetable source).
