let’s talk about the importance of vitamin b6 in  females now the big reason why i wanted to do a  

video on vitamin b6 in women is because 32 of all  women have a vitamin b6 deficiency so i think it’s  

kind of important to mention it increase awareness  on exactly what happens when you’re deficient  

now vitamin b6 is involved in over 140 different  enzyme chemical reactions there’s three main  

things that it does number one it’s involved  in protein fat and carbohydrate metabolism and  

that’s quite extensive number two it’s involved in  the red blood cell and number three it’s essential  

for making neurotransmitters and neurotransmitters  are those communications that travel through the  

nervous system they’re hormone-like but hormones  travel through the blood neurotransmitters travel  

through the nervous system and vitamin b6 also  acts as an antioxidant and it can help you as an  

anti-inflammatory i think of b6 as that vitamin  that is a helper compound that just allows other  

chemical reactions to work and so if you’re  having certain problems trying to fix something  

it could be just you need more vitamin b6 because  vitamin b6 is involved in so many different  

chemical reactions now we normally have hundreds  of different microbes in our gut that make the b  

vitamins primarily vitamin b2 and vitamin b3 and  there’s also microbes that make vitamin b6 but  

not in large amounts and so if you’re not getting  it from your diet there’s no way you can even get  

close to getting it from these microbes now what’s  interesting about the microbiome is that they need  

nutrients to function they need nutrients from  your diet and also many of the nutrients that we  

need come from the microbiome and so if you’re  not getting enough nutrients from your diet  

that can affect the microbiome and a lack of  microbiome can affect the nutrients that actually  

they give you now typically vitamin b6 comes from  tuna turkey beef chicken salmon sunflower seeds  

spinach and there are many other foods as well but  let’s talk about the symptoms that can occur if  

you’re b6 deficient and you’re female number one  pms symptoms i’m talking about anxiety depression  

irritability there’s one study that showed that  when you take b6 you can reduce the symptoms by 69  

and even more than that if you add magnesium  number two nausea pregnancy that is a b6  

deficiency they don’t know exactly why but it  has something to do with the neurotransmitters  

also if you have morning sickness or you’re  pregnant and you’re vomiting b6 is the answer you  

want to take 25 milligrams of b6 usually between  one or two months if you also add some ginger  

that can actually help even more number three  breast cancer risk may reduce if you have enough  

b6 number four fluid retention b6 can help get rid  of excess fluid number five carpal tunnel syndrome  

especially if you’re pregnant and you have carpal  tunnel syndrome you need vitamin b6 all right
