This Natural Factors product is a vitamin B3 tablet made with 100 mg of nicotinic acid. Helps in energy metabolism and tissue formation.
What is nicotinic acid?
Vitamin B3 is the name shared by two related compounds, nicotinic acid and niacinamide, together known as niacin. Natural Factors uses the nicotinic acid form here. Niacin is found in poultry, fish, peanuts, mushrooms and enriched grains, and the body can also make small amounts from the amino acid tryptophan. It is the starting material for NAD, a coenzyme used in hundreds of reactions in every cell.
Key features
100 mg of vitamin B3 as nicotinic acid per tablet
90 tablets per bottle
Vegan and non-GMO
Gluten-free, dairy-free and soy-free
Why this form?
Some shoppers look specifically for nicotinic acid, not niacinamide or the flush-free inositol hexanicotinate form. The 100 mg tablet offers it as a stand-alone vitamin, separate from a B complex.

Excellent for my Long Covid
I take three of these to induce the flush and it's been treating my Long Covid very well. I didn't realize how much it was doing for me until I ran out and my symptoms started to decline. I got the 500mg version too (same brand) but I can't figure out why that one didn't make me flush, especially since it was almost double the dose I was taking with the 3 100mg tablets. Maybe it needs to build up more, like some comments are suggesting. I'll hold off from reviewing that one until I know more since it's only been one day on the 500mg tablets. But I'm happy I have another bottle of the 100mg on the way! This stuff really is amazing. It's so frustrating that I can't find it in stores: I'm so grateful I can find it here on Vitasave!

Flash sale
Having a "2 hour" Flash Sales only makes long time customers very angry..... Preempting those long term customers with a warning a day or two ahead "special news coming.... Watch your emails" is a better approach

B3 at 100mg
I believe without proof that adults can benefit from about 300 mg of B3 daily. Split each pill into two 50 mg parts if you are bothered by flushing. 50 mg causes only minor flushing, if any.
