More grip on anxiety with vitamin B6
Are you burdened by concerns that are not serious enough from an objective standpoint to pay so much attention to? According to British psychologists, people with anxiety may benefit from a hefty dose of vitamin B6.
Study
Vitamin B12 had no statistically significant effects in this study. We therefore ignore the effects of vitamin B12 in this post.
The vitamin B6 supplements provided 100 milligrams of pyridoxine HCl daily. The researchers used a product from Innopure. [innopure.com] Innopure had nothing to do with the study.
Before and after the supplementation period, the researchers used standardized questionnaires to determine the students' tendency towards depression and anxiety. They also studied how the students responded to a variety of sensory stimuli.
Results
You can see this below.
The researchers found an increased surround suppression or visual contrast detection in the students in the vitamin B6 group. This is a subtle, and almost inexplicable phenomenon that suggests that the neurotransmitter GABA is more active in the brain.
The researchers therefore suspect that vitamin B6 does its job via GABA. Supplementation may increase the production of GABA or increase the interaction with the GABA receptor.
By the way, GABA is a neurotransmitter that mainly lowers the activity of other neutransmitters.
Conclusion
"One potential option would be to combine vitamin B6 supplements with talking therapies such as cognitive behavioral yherapy to boost their effect."
