Synopsis

Pyridoxal-5-phosphate (P-5-P) is the bioactive, coenzyme form of vitamin B6, required for over 100 enzymatic reactions in the body—especially those involved in amino acid metabolism, neurotransmitter synthesis, and immune function. Unlike standard vitamin B6 (pyridoxine), P-5-P is readily usable by the body without conversion, making it ideal for individuals with impaired liver function or genetic variations affecting B6 metabolism. It supports mood, nerve health, hormone regulation, and cardiovascular function.
