Support energy metabolism, neurotransmitter production, and healthy nerve function with USP-grade pyridoxine HCl powder.
Vitamin B6 is used to convert food into energy and to make neurotransmitters involved in normal mood and nerve signaling. This is a single-ingredient USP-grade powder so you can weigh or scoop your own serving.
One level 0.625 scoop provides 50 mg pyridoxine HCl. There are no fillers or additives. For best accuracy, use a milligram scale.
Available Sizes: 25 g = 500 servings | 100 g = 2,000 servings
Take 50 mg (one level 0.625 scoop) daily, or as directed by a healthcare professional.
For best accuracy, we recommend using a precision digital scale.
Store in a cool, dark, dry place. Keep tightly closed. Protect from heat, light, and moisture.

Ingredients:
Pyridoxine hydrochloride (Vitamin B6), USP grade.
No fillers, additives, gluten, soy, dairy, sugar, starch, artificial flavors, colors, or preservatives.
Serving Size: 50 mg (one level 0.625 scoop)
Servings Per Container: 25 g = 500 | 100 g = 2,000
Amount Per Serving
Vitamin B6 (as pyridoxine HCl) — 50 mg (2,941% DV*)
*Percent Daily Values are based on a 2,000 calorie diet.
How do I take it?
Take 50 mg daily — one level 0.625 scoop — or as directed by a healthcare professional. A milligram scale is more accurate than the scoop.
What sizes are available?
25 g (500 servings) and 100 g (2,000 servings).
Can I take it with other B vitamins?
Yes. Many people take B6 with B1, B2, or B5. Keep the milligram amount measured.
Is a high percent Daily Value a problem?
50 mg is far above the 1.7 mg Daily Value. That is why the serving is small. Do not increase the dose on your own.
Why is there a nerve warning?
Long-term high-dose vitamin B6 has been linked with tingling or numbness in hands and feet. Stay at the labeled serving unless a clinician directs otherwise.
Is this vegan?
Yes. Pyridoxine HCl powder with no animal ingredients.
How should I store it?
Store in a cool, dark, dry place. Keep tightly closed. Protect from heat, light, and moisture.
Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) is a water-soluble cofactor used in amino-acid metabolism and in making neurotransmitters such as serotonin, dopamine, and GABA. Pyridoxine HCl is the common supplemental salt. High daily intakes over long periods can affect peripheral nerves, so dosing should stay measured. This section is educational and does not establish that this powder treats any condition.
Key Research Findings:
* B6 as an enzyme cofactor
Parra, M., Stahl, S., and Hellmann, H. (2018). Vitamin B6 and its role in cell metabolism and physiology. Cells.
This review described how B6 coenzymes take part in amino-acid, glucose, and lipid metabolism and in neurotransmitter synthesis.
* B6 status and metabolism
Ueland, P.M., Ulvik, A., Rios-Avila, L., Midttun, Ø., and Gregory, J.F. (2015). Direct and functional biomarkers of vitamin B6 status. Annual Review of Nutrition.
The authors reviewed how B6 status is measured and how the vitamin is used in one-carbon and amino-acid pathways.
* Neurotransmitter synthesis
Dakshinamurti, K. and Dakshinamurti, S. (2014). Vitamin B6. In Handbook of Vitamins.
This chapter summarized B6-dependent enzymes that make serotonin, dopamine, GABA, and other signaling molecules.
* Intake and upper limits
Institute of Medicine (1998). Dietary Reference Intakes for Thiamin, Riboflavin, Niacin, Vitamin B6, Folate, Vitamin B12, Pantothenic Acid, Biotin, and Choline. National Academies Press.
The DRI report set adult B6 requirements and discussed sensory-nerve effects reported with long-term high-dose supplemental B6.
* B6 and homocysteine metabolism
Selhub, J. (1999). Homocysteine metabolism. Annual Review of Nutrition.
This review placed vitamin B6 among the cofactors used in normal homocysteine handling.
Metabolic Research Perspectives:
From a bioenergetic view, B6 is a cofactor for turning amino acids into usable intermediates and for making the transmitters nerves use to signal. A small, weighed serving of USP pyridoxine HCl supplies that cofactor without extra ingredients.
From a low-toxin view, a single-ingredient USP powder avoids binders and flavors. Because B6 is potent by weight, a milligram scale or a level scoop matters more than taking a large unmeasured pinch.

Consult a healthcare professional before use if you are pregnant, nursing, taking medication, or have a medical condition.
High-dose vitamin B6 taken for long periods may cause numbness or tingling in the hands and feet. Do not exceed the suggested serving unless directed by a healthcare professional. Stop use and seek care if those symptoms appear.
Keep out of reach of children.
Store in a cool, dark, dry place. Keep tightly closed. Protect from heat, light, and moisture.
