I just Googled the recommended daily dose for B6 vitamins and

>>7957834
why even take a pill when you can get enough from food

>>7957834
>buying vitamins
nice quackery OP

>>7957836
But you can't get enough from food.
There's barely any of this in food.

>>7957836
>you can get enough from food
in theory yes
in practice no

Because a 1.5mg pill would be tiny/a waste of a pill.
Check to see if there's any multivitamins with b6, you'll get more back for your buck that way.

>>7957883
Mate. Meats and various vegetables have Vit B complex, its piss easy to get.

>>7957834
>implying all of the vit b in a tablet will be absorbed
Lmao, you're just paying for expensive urine

>>7958030
If more people knew how shitty tablets are

>>7957834

Because FDA daily recommended values are ridiculously low.

The body might have lower absorption of whatever they use to give you the B6. So, you wouldn't actually get 50 mg.

Just take the 50 mg. Vitamin B6 is water soluble. That makes them very, very hard to overdose on.

Vitamin absorption might be shitty, but what about minerals, given that they are in a good salt format (magnesium bisglycinate for example)?
Can I benefit greatly from supplementing with magnesium, zinc, copper, iron, selenium, iodine, manganese, etc?

Zinc: You will get rock hard boners, better orgasms, and will want to fuck everything

People in this thread don't know what a recommended daily intake/allowance means, nor what actually is in a pill.

>100% of a pill is active ingredients

>>7958203
for a time. then it will go away.

>>7958317
nah it's because the bioavailability is absolutely shit. probably less than a tenth of what you're taking is absorbed properly

meat has absorbtion factors so it's actually absorbed very well. like heme iron vs inorganic iron, milk calcium vs plant calcium, etc

Excessive vitamin b6 is neurotoxic.

Try getting your micronutrients from actual foods instead of the supplement jew.

Can someone who's knowledgeable about mineral absorption please answer this question?
I really want to believe that I'm doing lots of good to my nervous system by eating mineral supplements.

Trying to get 100% of every single vitamin and mineral from food every single day is guaranteed to make you fat. There's simply not enough nutritious food that isn't high in calories

>>7958503
>not exercising
shut up fatty

>>7958380
Thanks for this. hope i don't get neuropathy

>>7958503
So how did people survive before vitamins? Maybe you don't need 100% of every vitamin everyday to survive

>>7958541
U dont cuz ur body stores them all to some degree, some better than others

>>7958503
>what are vegetables

>>7958474
Please, can someone answer comprehensively about minerals?
