150 capsules | Capsules | Vitamin B6 | United States of America
Pyridoxal 5'-Phosphate Caps by Life Extension contains 20 mg of vitamin B6 per capsule, in the biologically active form pyridoxal-5'-phosphate (P-5-P). This form of vitamin B6 is used directly by the body as a coenzyme and is involved in various processes. Among other functions, vitamin B6 supports the normal functioning of the nervous system and helps reduce tiredness and fatigue.
What is pyridoxal-5'-phosphate (P-5-P)?
Pyridoxal-5'-phosphate, also known as P-5-P or PLP, is the biologically active form of vitamin B6. This water-soluble vitamin occurs naturally in foods such as fish, meat, potatoes, bananas and wholegrain products.
In the body, vitamin B6 is involved in more than 100 enzymatic reactions. P-5-P acts as a coenzyme: a substance that helps enzymes carry out certain chemical reactions. Vitamin B6 supports protein metabolism and production, contributes to red blood cell formation and helps support energy production in the muscles.
Vitamin B6 in the active P-5-P form
For this supplement, Life Extension has chosen pyridoxal-5'-phosphate rather than the commonly used form pyridoxine hydrochloride. The body must first convert pyridoxine into P-5-P through several steps. By providing vitamin B6 directly in this active form, the supplement contains the form the body uses as a coenzyme.
