  • Summary

  • In this episode of Daily Value, we look at the latest research on B vitamins and their in neuropsychiatric disorders. A newly published meta-analysis suggests a causal relationship between B vitamin deficiencies and neuropsychiatric disorders. We will break down the scientific findings on B6, B12, and folate, shedding light on their roles in conditions like Parkinson’s disease.

    Discussion Points:

    • How recent genetic studies support a causal link between B vitamin deficiencies and mental health conditions.
    • The role of B vitamins in reducing neurotoxicity and slowing brain atrophy.
    • How vitamin B12 may protect against dopamine neuron loss and disease progression.
    • Evidence linking low B6 levels to neurotransmitter imbalances and schizophrenia risk.
    • The impact of folate on one-carbon metabolism and its protective role in neurodegeneration.
