How much vitamin B6 do I need compared with 100 mg?

The NHS says adults aged 19 to 64 need about 1.4 mg of vitamin B6 a day for men and 1.2 mg for women. Solgar notes that most people can reach the recommended levels through their diet, as vitamin B6 is found in poultry, fish, seeds, beans and wholegrains. Each capsule provides 100 mg, which is far more than the daily amount the NHS says adults need. See Warnings for the NHS advice on supplement amounts.

Take 1 capsule a day.

Please read the following before taking this supplement:

• The NHS says not to take more than 10 mg of vitamin B6 a day in supplements unless a doctor has advised you to. Each capsule provides 100 mg, so speak to a doctor before taking it.
• The NHS says the effects of taking between 10 mg and 200 mg of vitamin B6 a day are unclear, so there is not enough evidence to say how long these amounts can safely be taken.
• Food supplements should not be used instead of a varied, balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.
