One in Four Participants Reported Vitamin B6 Toxicity at 10 mg Per Day or Less.
For years, many people—including healthcare professionals—believed vitamin B6 toxicity was rare and occurred only at very high doses.
The experiences shared by people living with B6 toxicity told a different story.
Today, I'm pleased to share a milestone.
A Doctor of Health Sciences research project by Angie Bollinger, MS, ACSM-EP, analyzed responses from 431 participants representing 30 countries, making it the largest U.S.-inclusive patient-reported analysis of vitamin B6 toxicity to date.
One of the study's most important findings:
➡️ One in four participants reported developing vitamin B6 toxicity while taking just 10 mg of vitamin B6 per day or less.
Additional findings include:
• 86% reported toxicity while taking 100 mg/day or less.
• 4% reported taking no more than the current Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA).
• 62% had taken vitamin B6 supplements for more than one year.
• 41% reported involvement of the sensory, autonomic, and motor nervous systems.

"There's no good reason why energy drinks need to have six times the recommended daily intake of B6 in them," George Institute food policy researcher, Associate Professor Alexandra Jones told 730. #B6Toxicity

We’re hopeful about the good that will come from this growing recognition, both for individuals currently suffering and for those who may now avoid it altogether.
This article from The Guardian is just one example of how the message is finally reaching the masses:

What is this?
This is an open public consultation by the Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) on an interim decision to amend the Poisons Standard regarding vitamin B6 (specifically pyridoxine, pyridoxal, or pyridoxamine). The draft decision follows discussions from the November 2024 Advisory Committee on Medicines Scheduling. The consultation opened on June 26, 2025 and closes July 27, 2025.
What’s the change about?
The TGA is proposing to place certain forms and dosages of vitamin B6 in Schedule 3 (Pharmacist Only Medicine)—meaning products with more than 5 mg up to 200 mg per daily dose would no longer be freely sold over the counter but require oversight by a pharmacist. The aim is to reduce the risk of peripheral neuropathy (tingling, numbness, nerve damage) caused by excessive B6 intake.
Why this matters—and your chance to respond!
Your lived experience is critical. Submissions from people with vitamin B6 toxicity can directly impact regulators’ final decisions—helping the TGA understand real-world harms and balancing safety vs. access.
✅ How to take action
Visit the consultation page and click “SUBMIT YOUR RESPONSE” (closes July 27, 2025).
Use the survey form to indicate support or opposition.
Add a written submission if you have personal or clinical insights—especially about toxicity symptoms, diagnosis, dosing habits, pharmacist involvement, or challenges obtaining supplements.
Take 5 minutes and make your voice heard—especially if you’ve experienced B6-related neuropathy or have concerns about access. Your feedback could directly shape national policy and protect others from harm.
Our Quick Start Guide was created for you—to help you make sense of the symptoms, understand the root causes, and take clear, confident steps toward healing.
