Brain & Mood Support
What it does
B6 is a key helper in making the brain's messenger chemicals: serotonin, dopamine, GABA, which influence mood, sleep, and focus. It's also needed to use protein and to form healthy red blood cells. Because it touches so many pathways, low levels can quietly show up as low mood or fatigue.
The science
Vital for central nervous system development and function, acting as a catalyst in the creation of serotonin, dopamine, and hemoglobin.
Most relevant for
Mood and PMS support, plant-based eaters, and anyone on the contraceptive pill.
