Vitamin B6 Definition
What Is Vitamin B6?
Any of several compounds that are considered essential to vertebrate nutrition. Also known as Pyridoxine is a member of the water-soluble family of B vitamins. It is necessary in the processes to metabolize proteins, fats, and carbohydrates, to make hormones and neurotransmitters, and to support the immune system. It also plays a role in the production of normal, healthy red blood cells and some of the neurotransmitters needed for proper nervous system function. In conjunction with folic acid and cobalamin, it acts to reduce homocysteine levels, thus lowering the risk of developing heart disease. It is the generic descriptor for three compounds: the alcohol, pyridoxine (previously known as adermin and pyridoxol), the aldehyde, pyridoxal, and the amine, pyridoxamine, and their phosphates. All are equally active biologically.
