Key Benefits and Actions†

  • Active, bioavailable form of vitamin B6
  • Homocysteine metabolism support
  • Supports a healthy mood

Who Needs P-5-P (Pyridoxal 5-Phosphate)

Vitamin B6 is an essential nutrient that supports numerous functions in your body. It’s needed to metabolize homocysteine, normalize mood, balance hormones, and help you sleep.†

Vitamin B6 deficiency has been associated with problems involving the menstrual cycle, heart health, and mood.

Unfortunately, many people have trouble converting food sources of vitamin B6 into its active form, known as pyridoxal 5’-phosphate or P-5-P. These individuals may benefit from P-5-P dietary supplements.†

Seeking Health’s P-5-P contains a potent 25 mg of vitamin B6 (1,471% Daily Value) in the active form of P-5-P (pyridoxal 5’-phosphate).†

This high-strength vitamin B6 supplement is gluten-free and ideal for those who are deficient or require higher amounts. It can be a great boost to your daily multivitamin or B-complex supplement.†

P-5-P (pyridoxal 5’-phosphate) is considered by many to be the best vitamin B6 form. Vitamin B6 (or pyridoxine) must have a phosphate group attached for it to bind to enzymes. P-5-P is considered an active coenzyme form of vitamin B6. It activates over 140 different enzymatic reactions in the body. Like the other B complex vitamins, you must obtain this water-soluble vitamin daily from food. This is because your body does not make it.†

Vitamin B6 is required for healthy:†

  • Breakdown of amino acids, carbohydrates, and fats
  • Energy production/energy metabolism
  • Immune system function
  • Brain function
  • Central nervous system function
  • Red blood cells and red blood cell function
  • Methylation processes
  • Many enzymatic reactions

P-5-P pairs well with magnesium to promote healthy female menstrual cycles, neurotransmitter function, and hormone metabolism prior to menstruation. It may also support stomach comfort and digestion due to occasional nausea or morning sickness.†

It can be challenging to get enough vitamin B6 from foods alone. Seeking Health’s P-5-P delivers a high-quality form of vitamin B6 in a convenient capsule. For a complete B complex containing active forms of folate and vitamin B12, consider B Complex Plus.†

Customer Review

recommended by my doc

I take vitamin B individually because I can't seem to take any B complex especially B12. Thanks to Seeking Health. I take this to supplement one of the Vitamin B group. ~Junghun Y.

Key Ingredients In P-5-P (Pyridoxal 5-Phosphate)

  • P-5-P (pyridoxal-5’-phosphate): The active, readily available coenzyme form of vitamin B6 plays a role in neurotransmitter metabolism and supporting a healthy mood. P-5-P also supports the healthy metabolism of hormones, homocysteine, sulfur, amino acids, and over 140 different enzymatic reactions in the body.†

Why P-5-P (Pyridoxal 5-Phosphate) Works

Foods are a primary source of vitamin B6 or pyridoxine. Healthy colonies of gut microbes also produce a large percentage of our daily requirements for pyridoxine.†

Pyridoxine must be transformed into pyridoxal-5-phosphate (P-5-P) before it can bind to enzymes and carry out a host of biochemical reactions in the human body. The enzyme that facilitates the final step of the transformation into P-5-P is known as pyridoxal kinase. Since ATP (energy) is needed for this enzyme to function, insufficient levels of ATP or energy may lead to lower P-5-P formation. Genetic variations may also slow this enzyme. If a person has both slow enzyme function and low ATP levels, their formation of P-5-P may be challenged. These individuals may benefit from a pyridoxal-5-phosphate supplement.†

The active form of vitamin B6, P-5-P, is used as a coenzyme in over 140 chemical reactions. These include enzymes that facilitate detoxification, neurotransmitter function, hormone metabolism and signaling, and much more.†

One of the most well-known enzymes supported by P-5-P is the CBS enzyme. This facilitates the conversion of homocysteine into cysteine that is used for making glutathione.†

Lesser known is the fact that P-5-P plays a role in the AADC enzyme. The Aromatic Acid Decarboxylase enzyme regulates the production of both dopamine and serotonin. These are considered the “feel good” neurotransmitters that support a healthy mood.†

While only two examples out of 140 are mentioned here, the importance of maintaining healthy levels of P-5-P cannot be understated!†

How to Enhance P-5-P (Pyridoxal 5-Phosphate)

1

Consider Pulsing

Dr. Ben Lynch recommends using certain dietary supplements based on your need for them. Start with a partial serving and increase slowly over time to the full serving, only if needed. When you start feeling good, consider reducing the serving size, skipping days, or pausing supplementation. Then take again when you feel you need it (stressful day, traveling, chemical exposure, etc.), hence "pulsing." Work with your qualified healthcare practitioner to determine what's best for you.

Pairs Well With

Optimal Magnesium, as both P-5-P (vitamin B6) and magnesium work together to support healthy mental wellbeing and hormone balance.† SulfiteX Drops to support sulfite breakdown. High doses of vitamin B6 may increase sulfite production by acting as a cofactor for enzymes in the glutathione pathway.† Phosphatidyl Serine, to further support a healthy response to stress.†

STRENGTH & FOCUS

Small and easy to take capsules. Recently added P-5-P to my regimen. Supplementing has helped with strength in my thigh (quadricep) muscles, deeper sleep, focus and drive . I take the P-5-P with SH Folinic Acid Lozenge and SH Adeno B12 which I’ve been taking both for awhile. I have plans to eventually switch to B Complex and pulse B6 if I think I need to do so. I have had high homocysteine levels in recent past. Dr. Ben Lynch and Seeking Health is both a blessing and a treasure. No way to ever pay back this man. I give thanks in my heart for him and other like him. I am diagnosed MTHFR Homozygous.
