Bladder Cancer (prevent recurrences)
Diabetes (eliminate numbness, burning tingling, joint pains and swelling that occurs in legs and feet)
Hyper-activeness (relieves symptoms and calms the behavior of some)
Premenstrual (moderate or severe, tension and swelling)
Fertility (restores in some previously infertile women)
Heart Disease (might help prevent)
Autistic children (might help improve their functions)




Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for B6 is 50 mg a day, but because of the culprits Click on Link, we have to take 20-500 times the RDA.  For severe cases 800 mg is recommended. Food alone can't help us get the RDA.


Enzymes play a crucial role in bodily functions.  Enzymes that depend on vitamin B6 (and in particular on its metabolically active form, pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, PLP) are of great relevance to biology and medicine, as they catalyze (cause an action or process to begin.)  a wide variety of biochemical reactions mainly involving amino acid substrates.






Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) plays an important role in many bodily functions, including protein metabolism, red blood cell production, glycogenolysis (in which glycogen is broken down to glucose), conversion of the amino acid tryptophan to niacin, neurotransmitter formation, and immune-system function.  Meats, whole-grain products, vegetables, and nuts contain high concentrations of vitamin B6, thou bio-availability of the nutrient is highest in animal products. Deficiency leads to decreased neurological and dermatological function and weakened immunity.  





Pregnancy

Empty calories found in sugar, refined flour, fatty and over-processed foods should be avoided while pregnant.

While pregnant, 30 to 60 milligrams of iron is needed.

The more protein you eat, the more B6 you will need.

Mothers who consumed a low percentage in B6 had gave birth to smaller babies.

B6 prevents nausea and vomiting during pregnancy.




The level of vitmain B6 in a mother's body relates directly to the amount of B6 in her breast milk.  B6 supplements may be capable of suppressing lactation (the secretion of milk by the mammary glands.).

Birth defects and brain damage in infants may be prevented by consuming B6.

There is value in prevention and treatment of toxemia and gestational diabetes while taking B6.

Herpes Gestation can be treated safely while using B6 and is extremely effective and an alternative to treatment.








Depression (Emotional)
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Causes Seizures
Anxiety
Bloated Stomach
PMS (Premenstrual Syndrome)
Weakness
Fatigue
Irritability
Confusion



PREMENSTRUAL SYNDROME

PMS can be relieved by B6 consumption.  The symptoms such as emotional tension, depression, headaches, weight gain, fluid retention, swollen breasts, bloated abdomen, nausea, constipation, eruptions of acne on the face or shoulders, clumsiness and accident prone, increased appetite and intensive craving for sweet and salty foods can all be remedied if treated by adding more B6 to the diet.

Women deficient in B-complex vitamins have too much estrogen which causes heavy menstrual flow, irregular periods, cystic breasts and premenstrual tension.





SEROTONIN
Serotonin is an antidepressant. 


Deficiency in B6 also causes serotonin levels to be inactive.  Serotonin is a compound present in blood platelets and serum that constricts the blood vessels and acts as a neurotransmitter.  It is mainly found in the gastrointestinal tract, the platelets and the central nervous system of animals and is thought to contribute to a sense of well being and happiness.


Serotonin is a chemical messenger that's believed to act as a mood stabilizer. It's said to help produce healthy sleeping patterns as well as boost your mood.

There are many researchers who believe that an imbalance in serotonin levels may influence mood in a way that leads to depression.

ANTIMETABOLITES
An antimetabolite is a chemical that inhibits the use of a metabolite, which is another chemical that is part of normal metabolism. Such substances are often similar in structure to the metabolite that they interfere with, such as the antifolates that interfere with the use of folic acid. The presence of antimetabolites can have toxic effects on cells, such as halting cell growth and cell division, so these compounds are used as chemotherapy for cancer.

Penicillamine




Cycloserine





Birth Control Pills







Top Antimetabolites:

  • Modern food processing generates vitamin B6 deficieny.
  • Industrial wastes in our water (PCB - Polychlorinated Biphenyls) Fish (tops it) along with meat, poultry, eggs and milk. Michigan has high levels of PCB contamination.
  • Canning of vegetables
  • Vegetable Oil, Corn Oil
  • Caramel Color
  • Flaxseed Meal
  • Button Mushrooms
  • Alfalfa Sprouts :(
  • Consuming Nutrient Depleted Foods






HYDRAZINES and HYDRAZIDES Defined

Rocket Fuel
Cigarette Smoke
May Cause Cancer
Maleic Hydrazide (In chips.  2 ounces of them provide more than 8 mg of unwanted maleic hydrazide.)

Those exposed live near a military base or launching pad are exposed more due to the air being polluted with rocket or jet fuel.


SUCCINIC ACID 2 AND 2-DIMETHYLLHYDRAZIDE
Succinic Acid 2, 2-Dimethylhydrazide sprayed on peaches, nectarines, tomatoes, brussel sprouts, cherries, grapes and apples.  Sprayed to lower production costs by shortening the ripening period for fruits.  This chemical enables farmers to harvest a tree once and only once with a mechanical device. This too causes B6 Deficiency.






AGONIST-ANTAGONIST

Examples of full agonists are heroin, oxycodone, methadone, hydrocodone, morphine, opium and others. An antagonist is a drug that blocks opioids by attaching to the opioid receptors without activating them. Antagonists cause no opioid effect and block full agonist opioids. Examples are naltrexone and naloxone.

ANTAGONISTS IN OUR FOOD THAT CAUSE B6 DEFICIENCY
Food Colorants (such as Tartapazine - aka FD&C Yellow No. 5 coloring agent)
Several Herbicides
Plant Growth Regulators (contaminates our foods)
Medications

Foods Rich In Sulfur (Sulphur): Onions, Garlic, Eggs, Flax Seeds, Walnuts, Raw Food


MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) is an organic sulfur compound that’s naturally derived during the earth’s rain cycle.  Sulfur is present in many natural unprocessed foods, but it’s quickly lost during the cooking process.  MSM is gaining a lot of attention due to the recent focus on longevity and anti-aging technologies.  

Improves skin health and complexion.  MSM is necessary for collagen production.  Sagging skin and wrinkles, as well as dry, cracked skin are all developed through a loss of collagen.  MSM works together with Vitamin C to build new, healthy tissues.  MSM can normalize collagen formation and radically improve skin health.

Strengthens hair and nails,  Collagen and keratin and both critical for the production of healthy hair and nails.  MSM is a bonafide “beauty mineral” that provides the sulfur needed to produce collagen and keratin.  It’s also highly noted to contribute to exceptional strength and thickness of the hair and nails, which can be noticed in just a couple weeks of consistent use.



How to use MSM:

MSM can be purchased in powder form or in supplement capsules.  For best results using the MSM powder, added it to your water along with a botanical source of vitamin C like Camu Camu Berry or lemon juice.  Most MSM supplements contain synthetic byproducts, but you can find an organic, 100% naturally derived MSM.   Start with one teaspoon of MSM powder in 16 ounces of water, and gradually work your way up to 2 to 3 tablespoons per day to see some really impressive results.

Natural cure for skin problems: Since olden times, vitamin C has been used to treat a lot of skin-related problems. Today, vitamin C is used in a lot of moisturizers, face packs and masks for rendering natural glow to the skin. Vitamin C is helpful in reducing wrinkles and preventing sagging skin by improving the elasticity of. It also helps to protect the skin from harmful UV rays of the sun. 

Helps heal wounds: Vitamin C is an essential factor required for the production of collagen, a protein present in connective tissues of the body (skin, tendons, muscles, ligaments etc). Therefore, vitamin C is especially helpful in healing wounds of all types. From minor cuts to deep wounds, broken bones and burns , vitamin C speeds up the healing process and helps you to recover faster.

Vitamin E oil works to block free radicals from the body, which play a large part in the aging process. If we can fight off free radicals, then we can reduce wrinkles and keep the skin youthful-looking.

Vitamin E oil is also effective in soothing minor sunburns. On being applied on the skin, it is readily absorbed by the epidermis and heals the damage caused due to exposure to ultraviolet rays. To experience quick relief, this oil should be applied twice a day on the sun burnt areas.

Brown spots can be attributed to a variety of factors such as free radical damage, aging, liver problems etc. Vitamin E oil is effective in preventing and repairing free radical damage. Applying this oil on brown spots, lubricates the cell membranes causing cell regeneration which consequently helps to smoothen dry skin and lighten the spots.
Pure vitamin E oil is extremely versatile. A major benefit of vitamin E oil for the skin is that it helps the healing process. As vitamin E is absorbed by the epidermis layer of the skin, it can be used for treating sunburn or protecting you from the sun.

Another wonderful benefit of vitamin E oil is that it can be used to treat scars, acne, and wrinkles because it speeds up cell regeneration. This creates an anti-aging effect, which makes the skin look younger. 

Vitamin E oil benefits the skin by helping it retain its natural moisture content. Vitamin E oil makes dull-looking, dry skin look healthier and fresher. You can apply a few drops of vitamin E oil to your nails and cuticles which is an effective way of treating the skin.
