Niacinamide:
Vitamin B3 as niacinamide is an important vitamin that is used in many ways by your body. Niacinamide plays an important role in protecting your thyroid gland against excess oxidative stress, including inhibiting the release of free fatty acids, which is one of the key causes of thyroid dysfunction. Vitamin B3 boosts energy production in the cells and helps support metabolic rate via proper thyroid functioning.
Niacinamide helps balance the thyroid and overcome or prevent either hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism. It’s important to have all of the right vitamins, minerals and amino acids in the right forms and dosages in your body for a healthy thyroid, since they all interact with one another and help balance each other out.
Focus on these Thermo Diet foods to get your daily requirements of niacinamide:
Chicken — 1 cup: 19.2 milligrams (96 percent DV)
Liver — 1 slice: 11.9 milligrams (60 percent DV)
Sardines — 1 can: 4.8 milligrams (24 percent DV)
Grass-Fed Beef — 3 ounces: 4.4 milligrams (22 percent DV)
Mushrooms — 1 cup: 2.5 milligrams (13 percent DV)
Avocado — 1 cup, cubed: 2.6 milligrams (13 percent DV)
Sweet Potatoes — 1 medium: 1.7 milligrams (8 percent DV)
And if you want niacinamide from supplement form, I recommend pairing it with L-tyrosine, copper, selenium, and a good iodine supplement from kelp extract as well, since they work together synergistically in helping overcome thyroid imbalance.
