symptoms you've mentioned lately and couldn't figure it out. Never

thought that it could be caused by P5p?

What symptoms are we talking about here? The P5P should be more effective.

Since too much B6 can cause angry agitation and lack of motivation, then I

suppose switching to P5P might cause this.

Sorry, I don't know what I was thinking - well, actually, I do, but the brain

is just not working right now. I was thinking methylation support when we were

talking about B6. The only symptoms I know of excessive B6 is tingling or even

some numbness in the hands/feet. So, if those are the symptoms you

experienced, then that seems a possibility to me.

Like everything else, this is an individualized thing - everyone needs

B6, but responses to high dosages are...highly variable - it is nice to

hear of your positive experience. I will say that some do best with a

combination of pyridoxine (standard B6) AND pyridoxal-5'-phosphate

(P5P), since pyridoxine metabolizes into, not only, pyridoxal, but

also, pyridoxamine (both forms offering their own set of benefits).
