A diet lacking in vitamin B6 can cause dermatitis, skin disorders, nervousness, insomnia, depression, migraines, conjunctivitis, anemia, and heart disease.  This vitamin is being studied rigorously, more than all other vitamins as researchers believe that there is much promise in treating various illnesses such as asthma, arthritis, kidney stones, blood clots, nervous disorders, and hyperactivity in children.

Foods that contain pyridoxine include: wheat, wheat germ, cereals, yeast, plan, soybeans, walnuts, liver, meat, vegetables, bananas, milk, and eggs.

The recommended daily allowance of pyridoxine for adults is 2 mg.
The recommended daily allowance of pyridoxine for children is 0.2 mg
