What is the difference between niacin and niacinamide?
Niacin and niacinamide are components of vitamin B3. Vitamin B3 is involved in multiple biochemical reactions and energy production in the body.
Niacin is converted into niacinamide when its intake exceeds the body's requirements. Both substances are water-soluble and easily dispersed in the body.
They differ in their chemical structure and effects on the body. Niacin is used to normalise high cholesterol levels, while niacinamide does not have this effect. Niacinamide is used especially for the treatment of osteoarthritis, pellagra and skin conditions.
These two supplements have possible beneficial effects in treating depression and anxiety. According to doctors' recommendations, the administration of the two substances has a potentiated effect if used in conjunction with vitamins B1, B2 and vitamin C.
