Niacin (Vitamin B3) - Feed Ingredient

Niacin, also known as Vitamin B3, is an essential nutrient that plays a crucial role in energy metabolism and the functioning of the nervous system. It is involved in the synthesis of coenzymes NAD and NADP, which are vital for cellular energy production and DNA repair. Niacin is also important for maintaining healthy skin and supporting digestive health.

In equine nutrition, Niacin is often included in feed and supplements to ensure adequate levels of this essential vitamin. While horses can synthesize some Niacin from tryptophan in their diet, supplementation may be beneficial in certain situations, such as during periods of stress, illness, or intense physical activity, to support optimal health and performance.

The following equine feeds, supplements and products contain Niacin (Vitamin B3) as an ingredient.
