I stumbled across something interesting a few weeks back. Apparently some people have trouble converting B6 into the functional form the body uses, which is P5P B6. It is correlated with having a “Morton’s toe” or a second toe longer than the big toe. B6 is really important for many bodily functions.
Anyways, I tried supplementing with it out of curiosity and I feel like I have stepped out of a brain fog. Colors are brighter, more energy, more focus, more patience. Dreams have become stronger. I don’t think placebo affect.
My conspiracy mind has me wondering if something in the environment is affecting our ability to process B6.
Either way take a look at your toes. ;)
Thanks. I love this info.
So the right B6 is not in a regular multi?
Yes the standard multi vitamins or B supplements just have regular B6 but it is actually P5P B6 that the body uses. So you can supplement with the P5P directly.
I initially stumbled upon this because a 1970s study showed that P5P fixes gestational diabetes in pregnant women. Gives the body the tools to regulate sugar properly.
In the amazon reviews you can see a lot of excited people having problems fixed.
