Mood swings, PMS, fatigue? B6 might be your missing magic.
💡 What Is Vitamin B6?
Vitamin B6, also known as Pyridoxine, is a multitasking vitamin — it helps make mood-balancing hormones, builds immunity, and supports brain and heart health.
Think of it as your body’s natural emotional support system — always working behind the scenes.
🚀 Why You Need B6 Daily

| 🧠 Brain Function | Helps make dopamine & serotonin (your happy chemicals) |
| 🩸 Blood Health | Supports hemoglobin production |
| 🌸 Hormonal Balance | Reduces PMS, mood swings & hormonal acne |
| 🛡️ Immunity | Keeps your defenses strong |
| 💤 Better Sleep | Helps in melatonin production (sleep hormone) |
B6 is essential for women’s health, mental clarity, and energy — a true multitasker.

🚨 Signs of B6 Deficiency
- Mood swings or irritability
- Fatigue or low energy
- Cracked lips or mouth ulcers

Women on birth control, older adults, or those under chronic stress may need more B6.
💊 Should You Take a B6 Supplement?
You may benefit if:
- You’re facing PMS, mood swings, or hormonal imbalance
- You’re on certain medications (like birth control)

B6 is water-soluble — your body doesn’t store it, so daily intake is key.
