The Benefits of Vitamin B6 for Men


 
Health
Vitamin B6 or Pyridoxine, much like it associate a member of B complex vitamins is water soluble and consequently expelled via your urine, which also means it needs to be replenished daily. It is because of this particular nature why it very hard to overdose on B6 or any other B vitamin. This is the reason why we need b vitamins supplements daily to maintain our vitamin b6 benefits.

There are many benefits of Vitamin B6 for men. Vitamin B6 benefits must be acquired from diet or supplements because we humans cannot synthesize it. Vitamin B6 is a member of 8 water soluble vitamins which normally occurs together in the same foods, each of which plays a vitally essential role in cell metabolism and the function of the nervous system.

Vitamin B6 is a fairly common vitamin that is available in many foods. However, you need to make sure you're eating enough of these foods every day to take in enough vitamin B6. By doing so, you'll get access to some of these benefits.

Low vitamin B status is associated with poor immune system functioning in elderly individuals. In particular, elderly people who are deficient in the vitamin do not produce enough interleukin-2, a molecule important in immunity, or an adequate number of lymphocytes, a special type of immune cell. Research has shown that increasing the vitamin B6 intake of such individuals restores their immune function to normal levels. The men in these studies had to consume significantly more vitamin B6 than the women: 2.9 mg per day compared to 1.9 mg per day.

A high blood level of an amino acid called homocysteine is thought to contribute to dementia in the elderly. High homocysteine levels have been found to correspond to low levels of certain B vitamins, including B6. This has led researchers to suspect that supplementation with B vitamins might slow the onset of dementia. In one study of 38 elderly men, B6 vitamin supplementation was shown to improve the memories of the participants, but it did not affect other cognitive functions such as mood and mental performance.

Men appear to need slightly more of vitamin B6 to be healthy in their later years. Your body uses vitamin B6 in more than 100 crucial enzymatic reactions. Without vitamin B6, these reactions would take place more slowly or not at all. They are primarily process proteins---breaking down old ones and building new ones. One important example is the formation of hemoglobin, the protein that carries oxygen in the blood.

Without adequate vitamin B6, you may experience symptoms of anemia because there may not be enough hemoglobin to deliver adequate oxygen to your cells and tissues. The vitamin also strengthens your immune system, helps convert amino acids into an important vitamin called niacin and assists in the regulation of blood sugar.

The most important role of vitamin B6 is to assist and strengthen the action of other enzymes that are primarily involved in metabolic processes of the body such as fat, glucose and amino acids, histamine metabolism and synthesis of neurotransmitters, hemoglobin production and expression of genes.

This role is actively carried out by a substance found in vitamin B6 called pyridoxal phosphate.

It is associated with the maintenance of a healthy heart by preventing the formation of homocysteine, a substance which causes severe damage to blood vessel linings and results in the build up to the plate as the body tries to repair the damage.

Vitamin B6 prevents buildup of plaque on the walls of blood vessels, minimizing the risk of a heart attack. It has the capacity to reduce the rate of cholesterol, hypertension and prevents blood platelets from sticking each other.

One study showed obtained through the diet or by taking supplements of vitamin B6 can greatly reduce the risk of Parkinson's disease. The authors of the study pointed out that this analysis is limited to smokers.

Pyridoxine deficiency may lead to problems of skin, sores in the mouth, anemia, convulsions and nervous disorders. It also causes the sensitivity to monosodium glutamate or MSG, which is a common food aroma. Reaction can cause bodily pain, headaches, tingling in arms and hands, nausea and vomiting.

First of all, those who are deficient in vitamin B6 are subject to the carpal syndrome, a disorder characterized by pain and a tingling sensation felt in the hand after deformation of the wrist in a repetitive manner.

Other manifestation of vitamin B6 is a skin disease resembling dermatitis seborrhea, conjunctivitis or eye Rose, atrophic glossitis with ulceration, intertrigo and confusing symptoms and neuropathy.

Vitamin B6 is usually safe when taken as part of the recommended dosage. Vitamin B6 is water-soluble, which means that it cannot be stored in your fat cells and thus any extra will be excreted through urination. Because you cannot store vitamin B6, it needs to be a part of your daily diet. Men ages 19 to 50 should make sure to get at least 1.3 mg B6 per day, and men over 50 should get at least 1.7 mg per day.

Foods rich in vitamin b6 include meat, chicken, vegetables, nuts, beans, legumes, brans and whole grains and seeds.
