B-6 vitamin danger!

so true but many articles state that most people derive enough B vits. from the food they eat; so should we be taking more even if our labs show a normal range? I’ve gotten the sense here that if you have a form of neuropathy you should be taking B12, so I have been confused as to whether or not supplementing actually can help if you have no deficiency which caused your problem.

@helencola I agree we are each different and should run supplements by our doctors. I do take B-12 along with other supplements for my peripheral neuropathy with the exception of B-6 since it is different than the other B vitamins. Here's some additional links for more information.
