Megavitamin-B6 syndrome daily upper limit: EU 12mg, US 100mg
- walterbell 2y ago> The syndrome is notable not only for its impact on peripheral nerve function but also because of its generally, but not always, reversible nature upon cessation of vitamin B6 intake.. [US] set a safe adult upper limit at 100 mg/day in 1998 and has not revised that downward despite several other national agency setting lower ULs, the most recent being the European Food Safety Authority revising its adult UL to 12 mg/day in 2023.
- RicoElectrico 2y agoThankfully it's not that easy to overdose on energy drinks. A 500 ml can of Black (Polish brand) has 0.7 mg/100 ml. I would not drink more than one of these daily. Edit: Oh, a sugar-free 250 ml can of Red Bull has 2 mg/100 ml. That is somewhat concerning. Edit #2: Red Bull seems to be an outlier, all other energy drinks come with 0.7 or less.
