Book Vitamin B3 (nicotinic Acid) Test in Shikrapur

Vitamin B3, also known as niacin or nicotinic acid, is an essential water-soluble vitamin. This vitamin is required for various physiological processes in the body like energy metabolism, DNA repair, and cell signaling. Niacin exists in two forms: nicotinic acid and nicotinamide, both of which serve as precursors for the synthesis of coenzymes nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP). Adequate intake of vitamin B3 is essential for the prevention of niacin deficiency, which may manifest as pellagra, a condition characterized by dermatitis, diarrhea, dementia, and death if left untreated. Vitamin B3 deficiency can be diagnosed through clinical assessment, dietary history, and laboratory testing, including measurement of niacin metabolites in blood or urine samples. Treatment of niacin deficiency involves niacin supplementation and dietary modifications to ensure adequate intake of niacin-rich foods, such as meat, fish, nuts, and fortified cereals.
