Product Notes:
Vitamin B-6 (pyridoxine) is also needed in our bodies to synthesize the important neurotransmitters serotonin and norepinephrine and to form myelin (the coating which insulates and protects nerves).
Vitamin B6 is found in fresh vegetables, but we don't always get enough of those, and if we're deficient in it, we can develop skin or mucous membrane symptoms such as seborrheic dermatitis, acne, tiny sores and cracks in and around the mouth, or an inflamed tongue; or a variety of nervous system problems such as confusion, dizziness, insomnia, irritability, nervousness, depression, or tingling in the hands and feet.
To ensure you're getting enough, NOW offers a convenient one a day formula that's been screened for potency and purity.
