NOW Foods Flush-Free Niacin Vitamin B3 250mg 90 Veg Capsules

NOW® Flush-Free Niacin delivers vitamin B-3 as inositol hexanicotinate — a molecule made of six niacin units bound to a single inositol molecule. Because the niacin is released slowly as the body gradually breaks the compound down, this form provides the benefits of vitamin B-3 while avoiding the warm, tingling flush that standard niacin so often causes. Niacin is an essential B-vitamin that supports healthy energy metabolism and overall wellness.*

Cautions & interactions

As with any supplement, talk to your doctor before starting this product if you are pregnant or nursing, take prescription medication, or manage a health condition. Keep it out of reach of children, store it in a cool, dry place, and don't exceed the recommended serving. If you take a multivitamin or several supplements, review the combined amounts with your healthcare provider so you don't unintentionally double up on the same nutrient. B-vitamins are water-soluble and generally well tolerated; any excess is typically excreted rather than stored.
