Magnesium Glycinate

What are the benefits of vitamin B6 in the Magnesium Glycinate?

Vitamin B6 (from pyridoxal 5-phosphate) 

 

There are two main benefits to taking vitamin B6 (pyridoxal 5-phosphate) alongside magnesium glycinate: 

  1. Enhanced Absorption: B6 helps transport magnesium into cells. 

  2. Synergistic Effects: Both magnesium and B6 play important roles in many bodily functions, and taking them together might amplify these effects.  

  3.  Support Uplifting Mood: Magnesium is known for its calming properties, and B6 helps regulate neurotransmitters like GABA, which may contribute to relaxation. 

  4. Sleep: Both magnesium and B6 can support sleep quality. Magnesium helps relax muscles and promotes sleep onset, while B6 regulates melatonin production, which is important for sleep regulation. 

  5. Blood Sugar Support: Magnesium helps regulate insulin sensitivity, and B6 is involved in carbohydrate metabolism. Together, they may help support normal blood sugar levels. 

  6. PMS Symptoms: Magnesium could possibly help reduce cramps and bloating, while B6 has been known to regulate mood swings and irritability associated with PMS.
