Low Circulating Vitamin B6 Is Associated With Elevation of the CRP

Many of the B vitamins have a large impact on our health in a variety of ways. This article suggests that B6 has a direct ability to lower inflammatory markers. And, since inflammation has been tied to so many of today’s chronic diseases, a multivitamin complex along with a diet complete with fresh fruits, veggies and whole grains will go a long way in preventative medicine. As an aside, this study used P-5-P…the active form of vitamin B6. When B6 is taken in, it has to go to the liver to be phosphorylated and this puts extra work on the liver. P-5-P is probably the most bioavailable form of B6.
