Vitamin B-6 (pyridoxine):
Functions: Vitamin B-6 is a water-soluble vitamin that helps the body make proteins, which are then used to make body cells. It also helps convert tryptophan (an amino acid) into niacin and serotonin (a brain chemical). Vitamin B-6 also helps produce other body chemicals such as insulin, hemoglobin and antibodies to fight infection.

Deficiency symptoms: Depression, nausea, mental convulsions in infants and greasy, flaky skin.

Excess amounts: Can cause nerve damage.

Food sources: Poultry, eggs, fish, meat, whole grains, nuts, beans and bananas.
