We conducted an open-label study to assess how a seaweed extract formulation, which includes Vitamin B6, impacts knee osteoarthritis symptoms. Involving 12 participants with confirmed knee osteoarthritis, we divided them into two groups receiving either 100 mg or 1000 mg of the extract daily.
Our primary focus was to measure overall joint health through a score that looked at pain, stiffness, and physical activity challenges over twelve weeks. While we found a general improvement in osteoarthritis symptoms with increased dosage of the extract, itās important to note that Vitamin B6 was part of a combined treatment with other nutrients. This means we cannot determine the isolated effect of Vitamin B6 on knee pain from our findings alone.
We observed no significant safety concerns during the study, and the treatment was well tolerated. However, further research in a larger, controlled study is needed to fully understand the role of Vitamin B6 within this formulation and its true effectiveness on knee osteoarthritis.
