Vitamin B6 shows promise for diabetes blood vessel health

This study tested whether a form of vitamin B6 called pyridoxamine can improve the health of small blood vessels in people with type 2 diabetes. The researchers gave 40 participants either pyridoxamine or a placebo for a period, then switched treatments to compare effects. They measured blood vessel function in the eyes, kidneys, and skin to see if pyridoxamine could reduce the risk of diabetes-related complications like retinopathy, kidney disease, and nerve damage.
