P-5-P 50 mg 120 VCaps

Metabolically active form of vitamin B6Vitamin B6 is found in three forms – pyridoxine hydrochloride, pyridoxal, and pyridoxamine – all of which must be converted into activated pyridoxal-5-phosphate (P-5-P) by the liver. P-5-P is the form of vitamin B6 the body ultimately uses.P-5-P is necessary for the production of GABA, the conversion of 5-HTP to serotonin, and also in the decarboxylation of L-DOPA to dopamine.  It is also needed for glucose production as well as amino acid and lipid metabolism.Who should consider P-5-P?P-5-P is recommended for people whose ability to convert vitamin B6 into this active coenzyme is impaired, as seen withthe elderly, autistic children, and those with celiac disease or impaired liver function.
