Vitamin B3 (Niacin)

What we use: Niacinamide¹⁰

What it does:

  • Fixes DNA damage from everyday life¹⁰
  • Turns your food into energy¹⁰
  • Makes important hormones¹⁰
  • Helps lower bad cholesterol¹⁰

When you don't get enough:

  • Rough, dark patches show up on skin that sees the sun¹¹
  • Your tongue gets bright red and swollen¹¹
  • Bathroom problems (diarrhea)¹¹
  • Your brain gets confused¹¹
  • Really bad cases: the scary "4 Ds" - diarrhea, skin problems (dermatitis), confusion (dementia), and death¹¹

Why we pay more for this form: Regular niacin causes something called"niacin flush." Your face burns, itches, and turns red like you forgot to browse on incognito and someone looked through your browser history.¹⁰ Niacinamide gives you all the good stuff without the unwanted face-fire. Your face should only turn red from the spice level you picked, not your vitamins.¹⁰
