Back in 2009, articles started coming out saying the FDA was working to ban the safest form of vitamin B6. The form that doesn't build up and cause nerve damage. I believe it's pyridoxamine.
      The FDA was trying to protect the investment of a drug company using it for a new drug;
      "A North Carolina-based firm called Biostratum began manufacturing pyridoxamine-based drug called Pyridorin designed to prevent the progression of diabetic nephropathy (kidney disease)."

    It plays a role in everything from the Alpha Ketoglutarate pathways, to Glycine cleavage pathways to, to Amino Acid Metabolism, to redox reactions involved in the NAD+ to NADh, NADp to NADph, and FAD to FADh pathways; the processing of carbs, fat, and protein.
    Its a universal puzzle piece. A joker card.
    Sadly, the health and regulatory authorities add a synthetic version to all our foods which is rate limited, and will give you neuropathy if you take enough to meet all your needs - especially with all the excess sugar in our diets.
    The P5P variant is essential.
    Its not the core dysfunction in NAD metabolism, though. You are missing a slave ossilator of circadian rhythm and epigenetic quality control, plus mitochondrial complex 1 to 4 dysfunction.
    P5P is one of the keys, though.
    You might not have realized it, but you have found a way to help Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor Dysfunction we are all suffering. One of the core dysfunctions is in the Kynurenine pathway. The others... will take more explaining.

Referring to your 3X increase in B6 intake, from all the stuff I ve read about vitamins in general and my personal experience with taking 10000IU of D3 daily, it seems like the RDA's are to be understood as minimal levels for survival, whereas we all are looking for the levels that lead to optimal health.

    Impressively clear and concise presentation. Best I've seen. I take levodopa/carbidopa for Parkinson's, and the carrbidopa kills B6. I've just taken some B6 (50mg P5P) - hoping for a bit of a lift in energy level which has been low...

    • @Dedicated_.1
      @Dedicated_.1 Год назад +3

      I put Carbidopa and B6 into chat gpt, this is what I got:
      Carbidopa is often used in combination with levodopa to treat Parkinson's disease. Levodopa is a precursor of dopamine, a neurotransmitter that is depleted in Parkinson's disease. By increasing the levels of dopamine in the brain, levodopa can help to improve movement and other Parkinson's disease symptoms.
      However, when levodopa is taken without carbidopa, it is rapidly metabolized in the body, leading to high levels of dopamine in other parts of the body and potential side effects, such as nausea and vomiting. Carbidopa is used to prevent this peripheral metabolism of levodopa, allowing more levodopa to reach the brain and reducing the risk of side effects.
      Pyridoxine, also known as vitamin B6, can affect the efficacy of carbidopa-levodopa therapy. Pyridoxine can increase the peripheral metabolism of levodopa, reducing its efficacy and potentially increasing the risk of side effects.
      Therefore, it's generally recommended to avoid high doses of pyridoxine while taking carbidopa-levodopa therapy. However, small amounts of pyridoxine are usually safe and may even be beneficial for some individuals. It's important to speak with a healthcare professional about the appropriate use of pyridoxine and other supplements while taking carbidopa-levodopa therapy.

As usual I was put on Statins and a friendly Pharmacist suggested I take CoQ10 for 2 reasons, the statins drain it (and much more) from the body, and it supports muscle health and development, and the heart is basically a muscle. He also stated that HE believed that the heart does mend itself, but very slowly (2 % per year). My annual checkups continually showed some heart damage for around 7 years, then no damage was in evidence. I threw the statins away long ago as the side effects were disgusting but continued with the CoQ10 as I also found it provided additional energy for the day as well as supporting muscle health.

      However, I seem to have recently 'cured' the issue almost completely, not just fixed the symptoms. How that happened is not entirely clear to me, but it seems to be associated with my supplementing magnesium daily, and taking liposomal fisetin (1000mg, together with 200mg quercetin, one or two days per month max).

      That assumes that we can get enough B6 from meat (or any other food) to overcome a potential age-related block in that pathway-I'm not sure that's the case. Also, too much protein may have other adverse-health related effects on lifespan, as methionine restriction extends lifespan in rodents.

    So I looked at the amount of B6 in my multi-B vitamin pill = 5 mg. Then I looked for B6 on the supermarket shelf. The was only one brand and one B6 dosage =100mg, the max. 0mg tryptophan in 20 grams of the collagen supplement.

      Most multivitamins contain pyridoxine, which is 2 enzymatic steps for conversion into pyridoxal phosphate, the form of B6 that is required in the tryptophan-NAD pathway.

He is rising fast in the conquer-aging community, he almost look 20 but he's aroung 60 and he claims he is aging at 0.75y/year.

      While NMN increased my NAD from 25 to 39 uM, I'm not convinced I addressed the underlying issue, which may be suboptimal B6 status and reduced efficiency of tryptophan's conversion into NAD. We'll see if that's true in a few weeks with NAD testing.
