Niacin supplementation increases the number of oxidative type I fibers in skeletal muscle of growing pigs [PDF]
, 2013 Background: A recent study showed that niacin supplementation counteracts the obesity-induced muscle fiber switching from oxidative type I to glycolytic type II and increases the number of type I fibers in skeletal muscle of obese Zucker rats.

Whole blood NAD and NADP concentrations are not depressed in subjects with clinical pellagra [PDF]
, 2007 Population surveys for niacin deficiency are normally based on clinical signs or on biochemical measurements of urinary niacin metabolites. Status may also be determined by measurement of whole blood NAD and NADP concentrations. To compare these methods,
