This formula is a combination of pyridoxine hydrochloride and pyridoxal-5-phosphate (P-5-P, the coenzyme or "activated" form of B6). As P5P, vitamin B6 is extensively involved in the metabolism of amino acids, lipids and nucleic acids. Supplementation with vitamin B6 as P5P can be helpful for those unable to produce it efficiently from pyridoxine in the liver.

In the 1950s, researchers found deficiencies of B6 seemingly related to the use of colorings, preservatives and additives in our food, as well as increase use of prescription drugs. Excessive protein intake, alcohol or contraceptive use also indicates a greater need for B6. Vitamin B6 plays a crucial role in the multiplication of cells.*
