Vitamin B6 and Gut Health
-
Vitamin B6 plays a critical role in neurotransmitter synthesis and is essential for maintaining a healthy gut-brain axis. Patients taking B6 (25 mg daily) saw improvements in their gut health after 8 weeks, with reduced bloating and better bowel regularity. It’s particularly useful in IBS patients, helping with the breakdown of proteins and reducing inflammation. B6 deficiency often leads to mood changes and digestive issues. Supplementation showed a 40% reduction in IBS symptoms!
