Ingredient Benefits
Supports protein metabolism
The main metabolic function of vitamin B6 is to break down proteins into amino acids and the greatest amount of B6 in the body is found in the muscle.
Promotes healthy homocysteine levels
Vitamin B6 is an important nutrient to reduce homocysteine build up in arteries. Vitamin B6 is a cofactor to an enzyme that breaks down homocysteine to help maintain normal serum levels.
Provides cognitive support
Vitamin B6 helps to make neurotransmitters and regulate energy use in the brain. Some research suggests that there is a possible link between vitamin B6 deficiency and cognitive decline.
Although overt vitamin B6 deficiency is rare, some signs include swollen red tongue and cracks on lips and corners of the mouth. However, marginal vitamin B6 deficiency appears to relate to an increased risk of inflammation-related diseases.
