Vitamin B6: Why It’s in Calmer⁺

🌱 A foundational nutrient for mood and calm

Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) is an essential water-soluble vitamin that supports the nervous system, mood regulation, and energy levels. It helps the body make neurotransmitters like serotonin, dopamine, and GABA — all key to maintaining emotional balance and resilience.

⚖️ Calmer⁺’s Dose: 1.4 mg (100% NRV)

This provides exactly the UK and EU’s Nutrient Reference Value (NRV) for adults.
Calmer⁺ is formulated to deliver the right amount — safe, effective, and complementary to your diet.

🔬 How it works

Vitamin B6 plays a role in over 150 reactions across the human body, helping support numerous function, including: (optional fun fact!)

Neurotransmitter production ~~support~~: B6 is a cofactor for enzymes that produce serotonin, dopamine, and GABA — the messengers that influence mood and calm.
Stress balance: By supporting GABA production, it helps the nervous system settle during stressful moments.
Energy metabolism: Converts food into cellular energy, helping your brain stay alert and balanced.

📊 What the research shows

Low B6 levels are associated with irritability, mood imbalances, and in some studies, higher risk of anxiety or depression.
Supplementing with B6 has been shown to support psychological wellbeing, especially when dietary intake is insufficient.
At the recommended daily dose, it acts as a nutritional foundation, helping other calming botanicals in Calmer⁺ work optimally.
