What does it do?

Niacinamide is a water-soluble vitamin that belongs to the vitamin B3 group. It plays an essential role in energy production and maintaining cell function in the human body, and is mainly used as a vitamin supplement in pharmaceuticals.

Niacinamide acts as a precursor to the coenzymes NAD and NADP in the body, aiding in energy metabolism and intracellular redox reactions. This helps facilitate metabolism and contributes to maintaining skin health.
