Pyroluria
Could Pyroluria Be Affecting Your Mood, Energy or Digestion?
​
A commonly overlooked root cause that may be impacting your wellbeing
​
-
Do you often feel anxious for no clear reason?
-
Struggle with sensitivity to lights, sounds or stress?
-
Or find yourself feeling moody, foggy, or low in energy — even when everything “should” be fine?
​
You’re not imagining it.
These could be signs of a condition known as pyroluria — a little-known biochemical imbalance that can affect your mental clarity, emotional balance, and physical vitality.
​
What Is Pyroluria?
Pyroluria is a condition that may result from an excess of pyrroles in the body — compounds that can bind to important nutrients like zinc and vitamin B6, leading to deficiencies.
Pyroluria may contribute to a wide range of symptoms related to the nervous system, immune health, digestion and emotional regulation.
It’s not about disease — it’s about imbalance. And the good news? Balance can often be restored with the right support.
​
Common Signs You May Be Experiencing Pyroluria
While every person is unique, here are some frequently reported symptoms associated with pyroluria:
-
Ongoing anxiety, even without a clear cause
-
Mood swings, irritability, or low tolerance to stress
-
Poor dream recall or vivid nightmares
-
Sensitivity to lights, sounds or smells
-
Digestive discomfort or food sensitivities
-
Frequent infections or a “low” immune system
-
Difficulty coping with social situations or overwhelm in crowds
​
If some of these feel familiar, you’re not alone. Many people with pyroluria have spent years being told their symptoms are “just stress” or “in their head.”
