How Niatab 500 Works

Niatab 500 is from the Douglas Labs Vitamins product line.

Niacin (vitamin B3) occurs in the body as two metabolically active coenzymes, NAD (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) and NADP (NAD phosphate).

The niacin coenzymes NAD and NADP have pervasive roles in energy, related and biosynthetic metabolic processes. At least 200 enzymes depend on these niacin cofactors. The NAD - dependent enzymes are involved in mostly catabolic, oxidative reactions that release energy from carbohydrate, fat, and protein, whereas the NADP - dependent enzymes more commonly function in biosynthetic pathways of such compounds as fatty acids and steroid hormones.

Independent of its functions as NAD or NADP, niacin is also involved in the regulation of normal blood lipoprotein and cholesterol levels.

Niatab 500 releases its niacin over a time frame of two to three hours. This way, the niacin is more efficiently utilized by the liver and more evenly distributed to peripheral tissues compared to crystalline niacin. For the same reasons, Niatab 500 can generally be used at somewhat lower doses than crystalline niacin supplements.
