Analysis

This product stands out for its emphasis on high-quality, bioavailable forms of key nutrients, notably a substantial dose of Pyridoxal 5-Phosphate (P5P), the active form of Vitamin B6, and chelated Magnesium. It includes a comprehensive range of other vitamins (A, C, D3, E, B-complex) and minerals (Zinc, Selenium, Manganese, Calcium, Iodine), alongside PABA (15mg), Inositol, and Choline. Kirkman is renowned for producing hypoallergenic supplements, making it a go-to for individuals with sensitivities or specific dietary restrictions. While the PABA content is low and not a primary focus, the overall robust and bioavailable nutrient profile offers exceptional support for cellular metabolism, nervous system health, and indirectly, skin and hair vitality. The extremely high price per serving reflects its specialized nature and premium ingredient sourcing.

Pros
  • Uses highly bioavailable and active forms of key nutrients, especially B6 (P5P) and Folate (Calcium Folinate).
  • Comprehensive blend of vitamins, minerals, and supportive cofactors, including a good dose of Magnesium.
  • From Kirkman, a highly trusted brand for purity, potency, and hypoallergenic formulations.
  • Strong foundational support for overall health, which benefits skin and hair indirectly.
Cons
  • Extremely high price per serving, making it inaccessible for many consumers.
  • PABA dose (15mg) is very low, not suitable if PABA is the primary target.
  • Relatively low review count, indicating a specialized and niche market.
  • Uses Cyanocobalamin for B12, not the methylated form.
Warnings
  • Due to high potency, always consult a healthcare professional before use, especially for specific health conditions or if taking other supplements.
  • Ensure no interactions with medications, particularly with high B6 (P5P).

Categories
PABA 55.0
PABA is included at a minimal 15mg dose, making it a very minor component within this comprehensive and specialized formula. It does not contribute significantly to targeted PABA benefits.
Goals
Skin Health 88.0
The active B vitamins, especially P5P, contribute significantly to cellular metabolism and skin health. Vitamins A, C, E, and minerals like Zinc and Magnesium provide crucial support for skin integrity, antioxidant defense, and repair. PABA is a minor but supportive addition.
Hair Health 88.0
The highly bioavailable B vitamins, including Biotin and active B6 (P5P), along with essential minerals, provide robust support for hair follicle function, growth, and strength. The comprehensive nutritional foundation helps address underlying factors contributing to hair quality.
