TR International, Alpharetta, GA, has acquired the exclusive distribution rights from Shanghai Jiubang for Pyridoxal-5-Phosphate in the U.S. marketplace. Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) acts primarily as an enzyme catalyst in many body functions, including energy metabolism and neurotransmitter functions. Before it can be used for this purpose it must be converted into its coenzyme form from the liver. P-5-P eliminates this step by providing B6 in its converted form, allowing for greater bioavailability.
