Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) has been studied in relation to Alzheimer’s disease (AD) due to its role in brain health, neurotransmitter synthesis, and homocysteine metabolism.
Biological Role of Vitamin B6
-can act as a potent antioxidant
-Essential for the production of serotonin, dopamine, GABA, and norepinephrine.
-Homocysteine regulation: B6 is a cofactor in the conversion of homocysteine to cysteine.
Elevated homocysteine levels are linked to increased AD risk and brain atrophy.
-Anti-inflammatory effects: B6 may modulate inflammation, a key factor in neurodegeneration.
-Myelin and cognitive function: Involved in myelin formation and synaptic plasticity.
-higher vitamin B6 intakes have been associated with greater grey matter volume
Cognitive support / Homocysteine lowering 10–50 mg/day Often combined with B12 and folate

| Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) is a key neurotrophin (a type of growth factor) involved in brain health, and its role in Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) has been extensively studied. -AD patients often have lower BDNF levels in key brain regions, such as the hippocampus and cortex. -This reduction correlates with cognitive decline and brain atrophy. -BDNF normally protects neurons from Aβ toxicity -Exercise and cognitive training have been shown to boost BDNF levels and may slow cognitive decline. - natural compounds (like curcumin or flavonoids) may also upregulate BDNF. |
