Vitamin B6

Vitamin B6

Vital cofactor in biosynthesis of a whole host of the brain’s neurotransmitters such as serotonin, dopamine, epinephrine, norepinephrine, and GABA. As an aside, it’s also absolutely required in order to get the required energy from food. The plant-derived form used in Noobru™ is far more stable than the form found in animal products, which means that the benefits are still present when you take it.
