Vitamin B6 may influence IBS symptoms
We explored the relationship between vitamin B6 intake and the severity of symptoms in individuals with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Through a study involving 17 participants diagnosed with IBS according to the Rome II criteria, we gathered daily symptom reports and food intake logs over a week.

Our findings indicated that the only significant dietary component linked to symptom severity was vitamin B6. Participants generally consumed less than the recommended daily intake of vitamin B6, averaging just 0.9 mg per day, compared to the suggested amounts of 1.6 mg for men and 1.2 mg for women. Notably, a higher symptom score correlated with lower vitamin B6 consumption.

This suggests that individuals with IBS may benefit from increasing their vitamin B6 intake. Although this study has limitations—being small in scale and cross-sectional—it highlights a potential dietary factor that may impact the management of IBS symptoms.

In our exploration of how vitamin B6 influences irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), we conducted a controlled, double-blind study involving 25 IBS patients who met the Rome IV criteria. These individuals were randomly assigned to receive either a novel formulation combining Bifidobacterium longum BB536, Lactobacillus rhamnosus HN001, and vitamin B6, or a placebo for one month before switching treatments.

We observed significant improvements in several IBS symptoms when patients were treated with the vitamin B6 probiotic combination compared to the placebo. Specifically, abdominal pain showed a notable decrease of nearly 49%, and bloating symptoms dropped by over 36%. Furthermore, the overall severity of the disease lessened substantially, suggesting that vitamin B6 in conjunction with these probiotics may play an essential role in managing IBS.

The trial also revealed improvements in intestinal permeability, which is a key factor in gut health. We noted an increase in beneficial gut bacteria, which indicates a revitalization of the intestinal microbiota during treatment. While the study's findings support the benefits of the B6 probiotic blend in alleviating IBS symptoms, it is important to recognize that these symptoms could be related to the probiotics themselves rather than the vitamin B6 alone.

Vitamin B6 in IBS-C treatment
We conducted a study to assess the effectiveness of a dry jelly concentrate containing vitamin B6, along with inulin and curcumin, on patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) with constipation (IBS-C). Fifty patients who met the criteria for IBS-C were divided into two groups. One group received the jelly drinks alongside a standard diet for two weeks, while the control group followed the standard diet only.

Throughout the study, we carefully monitored changes in abdominal pain, bloating, stool frequency, and overall quality of life. The results showed that those who consumed the jelly concentrate experienced significant improvements in several gastrointestinal parameters. For instance, stool frequency increased, abdominal pain decreased, and there was a notable enhancement in quality of life ratings.

It's worth mentioning that while vitamin B6 was part of the jelly formulation, the specific benefits attributed solely to vitamin B6 are difficult to isolate. The improvements in the jelly group indicate that the combination of ingredients worked well together to alleviate symptoms of IBS-C. However, the control group did show some improvement in pain and bloating, which suggests that dietary factors alone can also play a role.

Overall, the inclusion of this jelly concentrate could be a beneficial addition for patients suffering from IBS-C, particularly due to its positive effects on stool parameters and quality of life. The study did not report any significant adverse effects, making this product a potentially safe option for those looking to manage their symptoms.

Less stress
Despite my initial dislike of Solgar, these vitamins are brilliant! They are 100% effective. I've become calmer, less irritable, and the stress has passed, allowing me to stop worrying about trivial matters.

Calm and less irritable

Good soothing. I advise. All irritability and anger have subsided. I began a 6-week course after my friend, a pharmacist, suggested it, stating that this preparation is more expensive in our chemists. The course was prompted by my irritability, anger, and psychosis. After two weeks, I began to notice a difference; I became calmer and less irritable. I took 25 mg as it was my first time using vitamin B6.

Good soothing. I advise. All irritability and anger have subsided. I began a 6-week course after my friend, a pharmacist, suggested it, stating that this preparation is more expensive in our chemists. The course was prompted by my irritability, anger, and psychosis. After two weeks, I began to notice a difference; I became calmer and less irritable. I took 25 mg as it was my first time using vitamin B6.

Soothes well; all irritability and anger have disappeared. My skin feels smooth and soft since starting vitamin B6. A friend advised me on the pharmacist, saying that this medicine is pricier in our pharmacies, while it is much cheaper here. I noticed a change after two weeks—I became calmer and less irritable.

I take these vitamins during the second phase of my menstrual cycle, halving the dosage as it was too high. They are effective, and I’ve noticed I become slightly less irritable during this time.

More cheerful
I bought this B6 for my husband, based on a cardiologist's recommendation, and began taking it too as I felt irritable and fatigued. I wanted a magnesium preparation that included B6, but I found that magnesium oxide is poorly absorbed. So, I purchased Magnesium Citrate from Solgar and B6 separately. After about two weeks, I noticed the benefits; I became calmer and more cheerful. For sleep issues, I suggest taking them in the evening. I recommend buying them.
