What is Pyroluria or pyrrole disorder?
Pyroluria, kryptopyrroles or pyrrole disorder, is caused by stress that depletes the body of certain vitamins and minerals
HPL is harmless when circulating in our body. It will bind with Vitamin B6 and Zinc causing them to be depleted faster and preventing the use of these essential nutrients in the brain and body. If the body has high HPL level,this compound will present in urine, this indicated that body has both vitamin B6 and Zinc deficiency. Long term of these essential vitamins insufficient will effect to the nervous system and brain tissue. Heightened HPL excretion classically associates with emotional stress, which in turn is known to associate with oxidative stress.

before they are able to be absorbed. Pyroluria is a condition that high level of pyrrole compound in our body which is a byproduct of hemoglobin degradation. Pyrrole compound excreted in the urine is called urine pyrrole, or Hydroxyhemopyrrolin-2-one (HPL), also known as
Urine Kryptopyrroles (Pyroluria) Test is a simple, quick and inexpensive screening test for the evaluation of urine HPL level within 30 minutes. This screening test can indicate if patient has vitamin B6 and zinc deficiency; the urine HPL level will be high. People who have high urine HPL level need to be treated with vitamin B6 and zinc supplementation under the physician recommendation.
Treatment if high urine HPL:
Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine), Zinc, Biotin and Niacin
