- The metabolically active form of vitamin B6
- Bypasses the conversion process in the liver
- Goes to work immediately to promote cardiovascular maintenance
Get the most effective B6 ever for cardiovascular maintenance with P-5-P from Swanson. P-5-P is the metabolically active form of vitamin B6 that goes to work immediately. In order for vitamin B6 to be utilized by the body, it must be converted by the liver into its active coenzyme form. P-5-P lets your body side-step this conversion process for more rapid and efficient assimilation. P-5-P is needed by the body for muscle growth and repair, healthy neurotransmitter function and more.

FAQ
- How is P-5-P different from other forms of vitamin B6?
Pyridoxal-5-phosphate (P-5-P) is the biologically active coenzyme form of vitamin B6. Unlike other forms of vitamin B6 that must first be converted in the body, P-5-P is the form directly used in enzyme reactions involved in amino acid metabolism, neurotransmitter synthesis, energy production, and many other essential physiological processes. - How does P-5-P support energy metabolism?
P-5-P functions as a coenzyme in numerous metabolic pathways that convert proteins, carbohydrates, and fats into usable cellular energy. By supporting these enzyme-driven reactions, P-5-P helps maintain normal energy metabolism and efficient nutrient utilization. - How does P-5-P support nervous system health?
P-5-P supports nervous system health by participating in the production of neurotransmitters and helping maintain healthy nerve cell function. It also plays a role in amino acid metabolism, supporting the biochemical processes needed for normal communication throughout the nervous system. - What are coenzymes, and why are they important?
Coenzymes are naturally occurring compounds that help enzymes carry out essential chemical reactions throughout the body. Many vitamins, including several B vitamins, are converted into coenzyme forms that participate in processes such as energy metabolism, amino acid metabolism, neurotransmitter production, and DNA synthesis. Without coenzymes, many of the body's normal physiological functions could not occur efficiently. - Is Swanson P-5-P suitable for special diets?
Swanson P-5-P is made with non-GMO ingredients. It is not suitable for vegan or vegetarian lifestyles because it contains a gelatin capsule. This product is also not formulated or certified to be gluten free, so individuals with gluten sensitivities should review the ingredient list before use.
