Vitamin B6, or pyridoxine, is a component of the vitamin B complex and necessary for optimal health. In its active form, pyridoxal 5-phosphate (PLP), vitamin B6 is a cofactor in more than 160 enzyme-driven reactions in the body that affect amino acid transformation, synthesis and breakdown of neurotransmitters, cellular energy production and use, immune function, methylation and DNA synthesis and repair.1-3 

While most people get enough B6 from food sources, some people are B6 deficient.3 Optimal blood levels of PLP may help support cardiovascular and neurological health.3-7 Through its role as a methylator, vitamin B6 (along with B12 and folate) helps maintain homocysteine levels already within the normal range.8 One study noted a connection between vitamin B6 levels, high homocysteine levels and increased mortality.6
