Vitamin B6 supplements in high doses can calm anxiety and depression
- PaulHoule 4y agoThat's an old one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthomolecular_psychiatry https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthomolecular_psychiatry Unfortunately that article doesn't mention that those folks used B6 as a cure-all because wikipedia often omits pseudoscience knowledge. For instance in their article on Sun Sign Astrology they don't say what the characteristics of a Taurus or Leo are supposed to be.

(in compare, my okay multivitamin has 50mg B6 and 1000ug B12)
