Vitamin B-6 is one of the more popular members of the B-vitamin family
and is found in fresh vegetables. Clinical studies have shown that
B-6 plays an important role in regulating homocysteine levels in the
body. Homocysteine is produced as a by-product of the demethylation
of methionine and can be toxic in elevated amounts.* Our Vitamin B-6
is screened for potency and purity.
From the FDA's website: "As part of a well-balanced diet that is low
in saturated fat and cholesterol, Vitamin B6 may reduce the risk of
vascular disease. FDA evaluated the above claim and found that, while
it is known that diets low in saturated fat and cholesterol reduce the
risk of heart disease and other vascular diseases, the evidence in
support of the above claim is inconclusive."
