Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for B6 is 50 mg a day, but because of the culprits Click on Link, we have to take 20-500 times the RDA.  For severe cases 800 mg is recommended. Food alone can't help us get the RDA.

Enzymes play a crucial role in bodily functions.  Enzymes that depend on vitamin B6 (and in particular on its metabolically active form, pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, PLP) are of great relevance to biology and medicine, as they catalyze (cause an action or process to begin.)  a wide variety of biochemical reactions mainly involving amino acid substrates.

Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) plays an important role in many bodily functions, including protein metabolism, red blood cell production, glycogenolysis (in which glycogen is broken down to glucose), conversion of the amino acid tryptophan to niacin, neurotransmitter formation, and immune-system function.  Meats, whole-grain products, vegetables, and nuts contain high concentrations of vitamin B6, thou bio-availability of the nutrient is highest in animal products. Deficiency leads to decreased neurological and dermatological function and weakened immunity.
