What are some other things to consider when vitamjn a does not fix dandruff?

B6 makes a tremendous difference in my experience, a single dose is noticeable the next day.
Pure Bulk's p5p powder is what I use, I don't need to take it much now but I usually take a dose of 50mg. Haven't been taking it steadily but I haven't had dandruff in more than a year now. Never had good experiences using multi-B capsules.Cool. How much is in a single dose? What kind of B6 do you use?
Did anyone figure this out?
I get plenty of vitamin B6 from food.Take active B6 P5P.

I was talking about beef. Why that specific substance? Can't it be absorbed from a food source? In my experience supplementing always leads to other problems.Yeh and? Active B6 works 100% for dandruff. Also, I would not count any B6 you get from plants as part of your B6 intake. There are some difficulties and multiple steps with getting B6 from plants and some people do not get any. And even when we consider animal foods from what I recall, 40% of B6 can be lost by cooking and what not. Not too mention the only actual animal foods high in b6 is meats like chicken, beef, fish, organs. Eggs and dairy are poor sources even when we don't consider the significant loss from cooking.
I don't really get dandruff but I have gotten it a few times and I would imagine it was because my meat intake was lower during the time. P5P gets rid of it. I also take it for dry lips that I get sometimes, fixes it completely. I am just telling you what will work, you don't have to try it. By all means waste your time trying to fix it another way instead of just trying P5P yourself.

I'll look into it. Thanks. Are there specific products you recommend?You supplement with anything long enough it will cause problems. But short term supplementation with active B6 isnt more problematic than other vitamins despite claims. Yes it can be absorbed from a food source. Meat as I said would be the best source and organs are even higher in b6 if you really wanted the most b6 possible. Salmon and liver are the best sources I believe.
But because B6 can be lost by cooking and is synergistic with many other nutrients it can be used up easily among other reasons. The higher protein in the diet the higher the B6 requirement. And stress also depletes B6 as it does most other things. I would not worry about P5P causing other problems just dont go crazy with it if you do plan on taking it.
