Ingredient profile
Niacin in MemoHoney: How to Count Your Daily Vitamin B3
Each MemoHoney capsule holds 7.5 mg NE of niacin (vitamin B3), which the label lists as 47% of the Daily Value. Women need 14 mg NE daily and men 16, while added niacin from pills plus fortified foods should stay at or below 35 mg (NIH ODS, Niacin). One capsule sits well under that line. Counting matters once you add a multivitamin or B-complex.

Label line
How much niacin is in a MemoHoney capsule?
7.5 mg NE per capsule, printed as the first line of the Supplement Facts panel.
| Label name | Niacin |
|---|---|
| Scientific name | Vitamin B3 (form not stated) |
| What it is | Vitamin |
| Position in the list | 1 of 7 (each line shows its own amount) |
| Per capsule | 7.5 mg NE (47% DV) |
| Amount used in research | Daily need 14-16 mg NE; supplement ceiling 35 mg |
| Strength of evidence | Nutrient; memory only if deficient |
| Traditional or marketed use | Vitamin B3 at about half a day's need |
| Main caution | Add up niacin from multivitamins; flushing begins around 30-50 mg of nicotinic acid. |
Niacin is the only vitamin in the formula. The rest is four amino acid lines, beta-alanine and a little calcium. One detail is left out: the panel never names the niacin form, which matters for flushing.
Units
What is a niacin equivalent (NE)?
It is a counting unit. Labels and nutrition tables use it so every source of vitamin B3 lands on one scale.
Your body gets niacin two ways. Some comes ready-made from food and pills. Some is built from tryptophan, an amino acid found in protein foods. The NE unit lets nutrition experts count both kinds on one scale (NIH ODS, Niacin).
For a capsule, the math is simpler. The 7.5 mg NE on the MemoHoney panel is the niacin inside the shell. Treat it as 7.5 mg when you add up your day.
| One MemoHoney capsule | 7.5 mg NE |
|---|---|
| Daily Value on labels | 16 mg NE, so the capsule equals 47% |
| Daily need, adult women | 14 mg NE |
| Daily need, adult men | 16 mg NE |
| Most added niacin per day (pills plus fortified foods) | 35 mg |
| Flushing range | Nicotinic acid at 30 to 50 mg and up |
| Form used in MemoHoney | Not printed |
Worked example
How do you add up niacin from MemoHoney and a multivitamin?
List every product, read each niacin line, add the milligrams, and compare the sum with 35.
Gather the bottles
Pull out every supplement you take daily. Include multivitamins, B-complex tablets and energy products.
Find the niacin line
Look for "Niacin" or "Vitamin B3" on each Supplement Facts panel. Note the milligrams and the form, if printed.
Add MemoHoney's 7.5 mg
One capsule a day, so 7.5 mg goes into the total once.
Add fortified foods you eat daily
Check the Nutrition Facts panel on cereal or drinks marked "fortified" or "enriched".
| What you take each day | Niacin added | Against the 35 mg limit |
|---|---|---|
| MemoHoney alone | 7.5 mg | Well under |
| MemoHoney + a multivitamin listing 20 mg | 27.5 mg | Under, with 7.5 mg to spare |
| MemoHoney + that multivitamin + a B-complex listing 25 mg | 52.5 mg | Over the limit |
Watch the third row: a B-complex on top of a multivitamin quietly passes the ceiling.
Flushing
Could MemoHoney's niacin cause a flush?
Not from one capsule on its own. The flush shows up when nicotinic acid reaches roughly 30 to 50 mg.
A niacin flush feels like warm, red, sometimes itchy skin over the face and upper body. Nicotinic acid triggers it. Nicotinamide, the other common form, leaves skin alone (NIH ODS, Niacin).
MemoHoney's panel is silent on the form. Even if it is nicotinic acid, 7.5 mg is a quarter of the low end of that range. The risk grows only when you stack it with another product holding nicotinic acid.
Check the niacin line on everything you took that day, and note which products name nicotinic acid. Bring the list to your pharmacist.

Does niacin help memory?
In one narrow case: a real shortage. Topping up a normal diet has no shown effect on recall.
Severe niacin deficiency is called pellagra. The NIH lists depression, apathy, headache, fatigue and loss of memory among its signs (NIH ODS, Niacin). Restoring niacin in that setting helps.
That finding does not stretch to people who already get enough. No source we cite shows extra niacin improving recall in a well-fed adult. The label calls the whole product "Advanced Memory Support*", but the asterisk points to the FDA disclaimer, not to a niacin study.
Memory trouble that is new or getting worse calls for a doctor's visit; the memory health guide lists causes worth ruling out.
Medicines
Who should check with a doctor about the niacin line?
People on tuberculosis drugs, and people managing blood sugar while taking other niacin products.
- TB treatment: isoniazid and pyrazinamide interfere with how the body handles niacin (NIH ODS, Niacin). Tell the doctor treating you before adding any B3.
- Diabetes: nicotinic acid in big amounts may push blood sugar up (NIH ODS, Niacin). 7.5 mg is small, but stacked products add up.
- Prescription niacin: if a doctor prescribed niacin, ask before adding any supplement that also contains it.
For most buyers, the bigger interaction question sits with L-arginine, which can lower blood pressure. Keep taking your prescribed medicine, and read the L-arginine profile before you start.

What sits next to niacin on the MemoHoney label?
Six more lines, mostly amino acids researched for exercise and circulation.
Niacin and calcium are the only lines with a Daily Value. The arginine, citrulline and beta-alanine lines show "not established". The guided label read walks through each one, and the chips below open the other ingredient profiles.
FAQ
MemoHoney niacin questions
What does NE mean on a vitamin label?
NE means niacin equivalents. It is the unit labels use for vitamin B3, because the body makes some niacin from the amino acid tryptophan and gets the rest ready-made. On a capsule such as MemoHoney, read 7.5 mg NE simply as 7.5 mg of niacin when you total your day.
Can 7.5 mg of niacin cause a flush?
Very unlikely. The flush is tied to nicotinic acid in the 30 to 50 mg range and up, and nicotinamide does not trigger it (NIH ODS, Niacin). MemoHoney leaves its form unnamed, so check your other products if warm, red skin shows up.
How much niacin a day is too much?
More than 35 mg a day of added niacin, counting pills and fortified foods together, is above the adult ceiling (NIH ODS, Niacin). Niacin naturally present in meals is left out of that sum. One MemoHoney capsule adds 7.5 mg, so total your multivitamin and B-complex too.
Is it OK to combine MemoHoney with a multivitamin?
On the niacin side, usually yes, if the combined total stays at 35 mg or less. A multivitamin listing 20 mg plus one capsule comes to 27.5 mg. Ask your pharmacist about the arginine lines as well; they carry the stronger medicine warnings.
Which form of niacin does MemoHoney use?
The label does not say. It lists "Niacin 7.5 mg NE" without naming nicotinic acid or nicotinamide. The form matters mainly for flushing. Contact the order desk at +1 (302) 200-3480 if you need the answer before buying.
Does niacin raise blood sugar?
In big amounts, nicotinic acid can, so people with diabetes should keep track of it (NIH ODS, Niacin). 7.5 mg is far from that. If you also take prescription niacin or several B3 products, show your doctor the full list.
Is niacin safe with tuberculosis medicine?
Ask your doctor first. Isoniazid and pyrazinamide, two common TB drugs, interfere with niacin in the body (NIH ODS, Niacin). Your care team may want to manage B vitamins themselves during treatment, and they should know about any supplement you add.
Can low niacin cause memory problems?
Yes, but only in severe deficiency. Pellagra causes depression, apathy, fatigue and loss of memory (NIH ODS, Niacin). It is uncommon in people who eat a varied diet. A doctor can check for a real shortage; a supplement is not a way to diagnose one.
