What it is
Niacin, also known as vitamin B3, is an essential water-soluble vitamin. It is naturally present in many foods and can also be manufactured synthetically.
Why it's used
Manufacturers add niacin to foods primarily as a nutrient to enrich or fortify them. It is commonly found in enriched grain products like cereals, bread, and pasta, as well as in some snack foods.
Health notes
Niacin is an FDA-approved nutrient that is essential for human health, playing a role in metabolism and DNA repair. Deficiency can lead to a condition called pellagra. At typical food fortification levels, niacin is safe; however, very high doses, often from supplements, can cause side effects like skin flushing. JECFA has evaluated niacin and established an acceptable daily intake, and EFSA has also assessed its safety and established dietary reference values.
