P5P 50

- Physiologically active vitamin B6
- Contributes to tissue formation, red blood cell production and energy metabolism
- Provides 50 mg of pyridoxal 5-phosphate per capsule
P5P 50 contains pyridoxal 5-phosphate (P5P), the active metabolite and predominant form of plasma pyridoxine (vitamin B6). P5P has a positive influence on many physiological functions, providing important nutritional support as a coenzyme of over 140 enzymes. It is very present in muscles, where it plays an important role in carbohydrate metabolism by contributing to the breakdown of glycogen into glucose. It is essential for amino acid metabolism, including the conversions of methionine to cysteine ​​and tryptophan to niacin. This B vitamin also helps metabolize fats and is necessary for the elongation of essential fatty acids. P5P is necessary for the efficient assimilation and absorption of vitamin B12 and magnesium, as well as the production of gastric hydrochloric acid. Vitamin B6 also contributes to the formation of tissues and the production of red blood cells, in addition to participating in maintaining the cellular balance between sodium and potassium.
