B6 Toxicity & Testing
In this brief webinar (taken from our PMS & PMDD Masterclass*) Rhiannon takes practitioners through the scientific and clinical considerations for vitamin B6 toxicity, illustrates why the test reference ranges and results are rarely relevant to our healthy patient population, and addresses strategies for successful clinical management.
Rhiannon provides the information and resources to support practitioner comprehension of the history and scientific context of this common clinical anxiety, which ensures confident patient management and communication of this delicate issue.
Learning outcomes & resources:
- Understand the history & context of B6 testing.
- Identify and interpret other lab markers responsible for influencing B6 metabolism & results.
- Understand the mechanisms of B6 toxicity, including cellular deficiency and influences of glutamate and GABA.
- Understand the key role of P5P in methylation and how to modulate it's influence.
- Confidence in communicating test results and supplement safety to patients and clinicians.
