Niacin
Each vitamin has two or more names that are interchangeable; for instance, vitamin C is also known as ascorbic acid. If you’re trying to identify a vitamin, these names may be confusing. Niacin and vitamin b-6 are two vitamins that are easily confused, despite the fact that they both have the same chemical name (pyridoxine). They perform some similar functions.
Niacin and Vitamin b6 work together to support your metabolism in a number of complementary ways. Niacin contributes to the synthesis of nadh, a chemical your cells use to produce energy from carbohydrates and fats. Vitamin B6 also aids in the metabolism of dietary protein and the conversion of stored carbohydrates into glucose, which is the fuel your cells need to function.
