Part Description
LP203201-1 Vitamin B3 intake
Niacin (also known as B3 or nicotinic acid) is a water-soluble nutrient that is part of the B vitamin family. B vitamins help to support adrenal function, maintain a healthy nervous system, and are necessary for key metabolic processes. Niacin is essential for the metabolism of carbohydrates and fats. Pellagra is a nutritional disease that develops due to insufficient dietary amounts of vitamin B3. Symptoms of pellagra include skin disease, diarrhea, dementia and depression. Salmon and tuna, eggs, leafy vegetables, broccoli, tomatoes, carrots, sweet potatoes, avocados, nuts, whole grains, legumes and mushrooms are good dietary sources.
