P5P 50 (activated B6) – Pyridoxal-5-phosphate or P5P is the activated metabolite form of pyridoxine vitamine B6. P5P is used for proper B12 absorption and is also used for the production of hydrochloric acid. P5P is required for the assembly of red blood cells and antibodies as well the elongation of essential fatty acids. Used also for hormone synthesis and creation, P5P is useful for adrenal, and hormone support. This activated coenzyme form, is absorbed readily and used in the brain as an important neurotransmitter converter of tryptophan to serotonin the feel good brain chemicals. P5P converts amino acids by breaking them down and reassembling into one another, specifically, choline, methionine, serine, cysteine, tryptophan, and niacin.
