B6 toxicity is absolutely no joke. https://understandingb6toxicity.com/b6-toxicity/symptoms/ https://understandingb6toxicity.com/b6-toxicity/symptoms/
Can take months to years to recover from. I've had it myself, had all kinds of symptoms including peripheral neuropathy. Couldn't feel my fingers. Took me ~6 months to recover full feeling in my fingers and toes. It's literally the reason I don't take supplements now.
- manmal 3y agoSorry to learn about your bad experience. Toxicity is vastly different for the different minerals and vitamins though, just need to inform yourself up front.
- zingababba 3y agoYeah I agree, I was being hyperbolic because I wrote that from my phone while walking around so didn't want to spend the time elaborating. I still take two supplements nearly daily. Those being choline and d3. Every now and then magnesium. However my first hand experience with toxicity as a result of nothing more than my attempt at gaining some type of insurance policy against bad health really caused me to reevaluate supplements and respect them in the same vein as any other drug. So now, I refuse to supplement anything until I can prove deficiency and a need with a blood test. In other words, spending the 50-100$ on a blood test is now my insurance against repeating my mistake. Unfortunately I can't test for choline status however I still supplement it based on my genomics and because it makes a clear difference in my cognitive function.
- manmal 3y agoInteresting, choline isn’t something that I can take indefinitely. It can induce depression actually, depending on metabolism.
