Vitamin B6 belongs to a family of three chemical relatives, water-soluble compounds includes: pyridoxine, the pyridoxal and the pyridoxamine.
Supplements that provide the active form of pyridoxinis, P-5-P (Pyridoxal-5-Phosphate fertilizer) is believed to be absorbed slightly better than pyridoxine, however this difference is not a substantial reason for choosing this more accurate form as Pyridoxine is transformed into an active form, Pyridoxal-5-Phosphate fertilizer in a natural way in the body.
Vitamin B6 takes part in more metabolic reactions of the organism compared with any other vitamin b complex.
It is worth noting however, that 25% of women follow diet that provides them with less than the recommended daily intake of this vitamin (the recommended daily dose of B6 is 1.2 mg, which would probably be much less than optimal dose).
Vitamin B6 is an essential dietary supplement for women as it can be taken during the premenstrual period, contributing to the metabolism of essential fatty acids and the maintenance of the balance of fluids in the body (reducing fluid retention).
It is now widely accepted that the deficiency of vitamin B6 may increase plasma homocysteine levels, a factor that has been associated with cardiovascular diseases.
