Pyrrole Analysis
Pyrrole Analysis
Pyrrole disorder, or pyroluria, is a common stress disorder in children and adults that is caused by a genetic abnormality in biochemistry where the body creates too many pyrrole molecules. Pyrroles are byproducts of hemoglobin synthesis, have little or no function in the body, and are excreted in the urine. However, because pyrroles have a strong affinity for binding to vitamin B6 and zinc, excessive amounts of pyrrole molecules can cause a dramatic deficiency of these nutrients and increase oxidative stress. This of course can have a profound impact on one’s mental and physical well-being.
Pyroluria is frequently identified in behavior disorders, autism, Asperger’s, ADHD, ADD, depression, bipolar disorders, assaultive/aggressive/violent behavior, schizophrenia and other mental and emotional conditions. Pyroluria can create poor tolerance of physical and emotional stress, poor anger control, emotional mood swings, depression, anxiety, poor short-term memory, frequent infections, inability to tan, poor dream recall, abnormal fat distribution, sensitivity to light and sound and tactile sensitivities.
Measuring pyrrole levels in the urine is a non-invasive way to identify pyrrole disorder. If pyrrole levels are elevated, a customized nutrient protocol can be created to correct imbalances and address oxidative stress. Retesting pyrrole levels in approximately 2-3 months after starting a nutrient protocol can be helpful to monitor progress. This test is also included in our Brain Chemistry Panel.

My husband has been taken this as directed now for 4 weeks. It has helped him to cut down on his munching and grazing in the pantry at night. He loves that he has cut down on portion size and has lost 7 lbs so far. Very good product for him. Gave him the ability to do what he was already trying to do - cut back on food intake. This just made it easyier for him. Thx
Vitamin D3 Plus K2
I got very good advice about products I am currently taking, as well as ideas for replacement products that were more reasonable.
you had the products I wanted at reasonable prices and the ordering process was easy and helpful
I’ve been mixing the calendula oil with my regular body lotion, and my skin is ecstatically happy. And I smell great as well. Will purchase again.
I take them at night and they do not upset my stomach!
I visited Brian at Village Green in person in July 2026. He was a wealth of information.
My knee feels so much better, and with just enough pressure to hold it together without feeling constricted. Definitely use the size guide - I would never guess I was an XL, but it fits perfectly.
