    Have a Question?

    Ask a Question

    • What foods are high in vitamin B6?

      Foods rich in vitamin B6 include poultry, fish, potatoes, non-citrus fruits, and starchy vegetables. Specific examples include chicken, turkey, salmon, bananas, potatoes, and chickpeas, all of which can contribute significantly to meeting daily B6 requirements through a balanced diet.

    • What are the benefits of taking B6?

      Vitamin B6 supports numerous bodily functions, including protein metabolism, cognitive development, immune function, and the formation of neurotransmitters. It may also help in maintaining healthy blood sugar levels and reducing symptoms of certain types of anemia.

    • What are the symptoms of a B6 deficiency?

      Symptoms of vitamin B6 deficiency may include skin rashes, cracked and sore lips, a swollen tongue, and mood changes such as depression or confusion. In more severe cases, it can lead to anemia, weakened immune function, and neurological issues like seizures or peripheral neuropathy.

    • What are the side effects of taking NOW Foods, B-6?

      While generally well-tolerated, taking high doses of NOW Foods, B-6 may lead to side effects in some individuals. These can include nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, loss of appetite, or headaches. In rare cases, very high doses over extended periods may cause nerve damage.

    • Is it OK to take NOW Foods, B-6 every day?

      Taking NOW Foods, B-6 daily is generally considered safe when used as directed. However, it's important to stick to recommended dosages, as excessive long-term intake of B6 can potentially lead to nerve damage. Regular use at appropriate doses can help maintain adequate B6 levels in the body.

    • Who should avoid vitamin B?

      While B vitamins are generally safe, people with certain conditions or taking specific medications should use caution. Those with B vitamin allergies, certain genetic disorders, or those undergoing specific medical treatments should discuss B vitamin supplementation with a healthcare provider.
