“Vitamin B6 is involved in production of hemoglobin, the protein in blood that carries oxygen throughout the body.” More specifically, vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) - one of the eight - plays key roles in keeping the brain and nervous system functioning properly, says Sonya Angelone, RDN, a spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. Together the complex of eight B vitamins are important for metabolism, brain and liver function, growth, and building blood cells, as well as for maintaining healthy hair, skin, and vision.
