Reilly Industries, Inc.

itamin B-3 is part of the B complex group and is commonly known as niacinamide or niacin. Reilly Industries, Inc. is the leading world producer of niacinamide USP. Niacinamide and niacin are similar but have different chemical compositions and sometimes function differently. Niacin, for example, is present in vegetables, such as beans, peas and other legumes; while niacinamide is present in protein foods such as milk, eggs, meat, poultry, and fish. Like other B vitamins, grains and cereals are the main source of vitamin B-3 in the human diet. Because processing and preservation methods destroy vitamins, flour, rice, pasta, breakfast cereal, infant formula and baby food are routinely fortified to ensure that people have an adequate amount in their diets. Vitamin B-3 is also available in multivitamin tablets and capsules for over-the-counter use by consumers.

The best sources of Vitamin B-3:

Lean meat
Peanuts
Cereal bran or germ
Whole grain or lightly milled cereals
