Vitamin B3 Niacin
Your heart needs a lot of help to stay healthy as you age. Life Extension’s Vitamin B3 Niacin 500 mg may help support an already healthy cardiovascular system.
Niacin is the only B vitamin that can be synthesized in the liver from the amino acid tryptophan — on average, 1 mg of niacin can be synthesized from the ingestion of 60 mg of tryptophan.
In its coenzyme forms, niacin is crucial to energy transfer reactions, particularly the metabolism of glucose, fat, and alcohol. Niacin’s beneficial effects on blood lipids is well-documented.
