Introduction
One of the most crucial nutrients for human health is niacin, better known as Vitamin B3. Niacin deficiencies can cause both physical and mental side effects: Diarrhea, alcoholism and depression. Fortunately, it is not hard for people living in the Western world to consume enough niacin on a daily basis. However, some people need a little more Vitamin B3 in their diet because of circumstances.
Niacin destruction
Sometimes, you do not have the time or chance to consume enough niacin. For example, this can occur when you go on vacation for a week. If you drink a lot of alcohol when not eating niacin rich foods, you can easily develop a deficiency. Alcohol destroys niacin in your body. A misconception about Vitamin B3 is that it can be stored in the body, so you can bulk niacin one day and then reduce niacin consumption the following days. This is not true; the body is not able to store niacin, so you have to consume it on a daily basis.
Niacin rich foods
You can consume niacin by eating natural foods or taking in supplements. However, I recommend consuming niacin through your diet, because this is much healthier and the food also contains other important nutrients. The following foods have the highest niacin dose:
Other products that contain niacin are:
Workings
If you have a niacin deficiency, the body will generate niacin by using the amino acid tryptophan. However, much tryptophan is needed to generate niacin. Tryptophan is also used for producing Serotonin, the hormone that causes happy feelings. Needless to say, the serotonin production will reduce, and this can cause depression. When this is the case, it is recommended to consume al ittle more niacin than usual.
