Vitamina B6 100 mg (Piridoxina HCL) - 300 Cápsulas Vegetales - The Vitamin Shoppe

What is Vitamin B6 and why is it important?

Vitamin B6, also known as pyridoxine, is a water-soluble vitamin essential for numerous bodily functions. It participates in the metabolism of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates, and is necessary for the production of neurotransmitters and red blood cells. Although found in foods such as meats, fish, legumes, and nuts, many people do not reach optimal levels through diet alone. A supplement like this can help meet daily needs.

Key benefits of Vitamin B6 for your health

Vitamin B6 contributes to several important functions in the body, recognized by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA):

• Normal energy metabolism: Helps convert food into usable energy for cells.
• Normal psychological function: Participates in the synthesis of neurotransmitters like serotonin, influencing mood.
• Normal red blood cell formation: It is necessary for hemoglobin production.
• Normal immune system function: Contributes to the body's defense.
• Reduction of tiredness and fatigue: Promotes energy metabolism, helping to maintain vitality.
• Regulation of hormonal activity: Intervenes in hormone synthesis.

Each 100 mg dose provides a significant contribution to support these functions.

How much Vitamin B6 do I need per day?

The reference intake for adults in the EU is 1.4 mg per day. However, many people opt for higher doses to cover specific needs, such as supporting metabolism or nerve function. This supplement provides 100 mg per capsule, an amount that exceeds the recommended daily intake but is within the maximum tolerable limit established by health authorities. It is always advisable to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any supplementation.
