"Background and Purpose--'Studies of populations] have described an association between low vitamin B6...independent of homocysteine 'often blamed]...We investigated B6 status, homocysteine and inflammation...in patients with stroke and controls.

Conclusion--The relationship between inflammation and low B6 status may partially explain the findings of previous...studies 'thereby identifying low B6 intake as a causative factor.]"

DETAILS: Rather than taking a B6 capsule, it is preferable to take a multiple vitamin tablet that contains at least 2 milligrams of B6 (most have more.) Taking a B vitamin alone could cause a deficiency of other B vitamins.
