Pyridoxine
Vitamin B-6 (pyridoxine) is important for normal brain development and for keeping the nervous system and immune system healthy. B6 may improve mood, anemia, reduce inflammation and more.
Vitamin B12
Vitamin B12 should reduce fatigue and therefore improve muscular endurance. Since Vitamin B12 is crucial to the production of nerve cells, RNA/DNA and red blood cells, energy levels come into play. B12 is a cofactor for conversion of homocysteine into methionine which is important for DNA methylation. Furthermore it is important our growth, cell reproduction and nervous system.
B12 also aids in reaction associated with metabolism of fats, carbs and protein synthesis. The methylated form is the active form which if any patients have a methylation mutationon the MTHFR gene they will need the methylated form for their body to be able to use and process the B12.
B Complex
B vitamins play an important role in athletic performance and recovery. These micronutrients are necessary during the body’s process for converting proteins and sugars into energy, and are used during the production and repair of cells, including red blood cells.
