Hormonal activity: understanding the role of vitamin B6

Hormones are involved in many normal processes throughout the body, which is why conversations around women’s wellness so often include hormonal health. But when it comes to nutrition, clear and accurate language matters.

What does vitamin B6 do?

Vitamin B6 is an essential vitamin that the body needs from the diet. One of its authorised health claims is that vitamin B6 contributes to the regulation of hormonal activity.

That wording is important. It does not mean that vitamin B6 “balances hormones” or treats a hormonal condition. Rather, it describes a recognised normal physiological role of vitamin B6.

More than one recognised role

Vitamin B6 also contributes to normal psychological function and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. These are separate authorised nutritional roles and help explain why B6 is commonly found in everyday nutritional supplements.

Vitamin B6 in Women’s Balance

Evelua Women’s Balance has been designed as a once-daily women’s wellness supplement. Its formulation includes vitamin B6 alongside selected vitamins, minerals and botanical extracts.

Our approach is simple: explain what each nutrient is there for without promising more than the evidence and authorised wording support.

Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a varied, balanced diet and healthy lifestyle.
